I had a Beagle/Border Collie mix years ago. She was absurdly intelligent. I have always wanted another, but SWMBO doesn't like dogs in the house. 

Someday...

SWMBO, or a loving dog

difficult choice

Do you know how to tell which loves you more?  Lock them both in a shed for an hour and see which one is pleased to see you when you let them out.

As someone who is cynophobic, all dog owners who use extendable leads or leave their dogs unleashed in anywhere other than a designated 'dog park' could do better. But then I also have an acute interest in dogs and think that there should be more dog parks. For instance, the Royal Parks could pen off a section of Kensington Gardens opposite the T-junction with Gloucester Road and turn it into a large dog park.

I'm not too keen on cats, me

What if you've only got a small dog? Where would you go then?

Buckingham Palace? 

Or maybe along the creek next door to our place 

Took the dog (Siberian husky) for a stroll around the lake on Saturday, it's 6 miles all the way round and we meet many other owners (or staff depend how well the human is trained) who have dogs of various sizes and breeds, what was annoying was seeing so many without a bag with water and a bowl (and other bag for the dog mess).

I think I saw about three people who actually had thought of their animals, it was 67 Fahrenheit but those poor animals are still hot and knackered by the end, think about them too before you leave home empty handed.

Do you also suffer from this epidemic over there?

What is that?

What is that? 

Dog owners are by law supposed to bag up their dog's poo (if discharged in public of course) and take it home or place it in one of the many tax-payer-funded bins which are placed in appropriate areas. Being too lazy to carry out the latter, the dirty so-and-sos throw the bags into the hedge. Their arrogance knows no bounds.

P.S. Why does every Forum I encounter contain dog poo threads - I thought I would avoid it on here.

Looks like it happens over there too mate. This one has a .au at the end of the address:

Ok.... well unless I get corrected by other Antipodean forum members, I have never seen that here.

Chalk one up for living in Australia!!
