Personally I prefer forums like this one Ye say what's on your mind, get responses from same minded people and you can discuss topics in a logical sequence. Maybe I should be put out to graze

I like boards by the way it's segregated into topics. I know 99% that if I come here to F&F that I won't be bombarded with pictures if everyone's kids, couples posting about how they love each other or angels with prayer that I should share on to have peaceful thoughts for the day.

One a husky type thing made a dash for my five year old and I had to shout at the owner to call it back. He was just standing watching it make a run for a small child. The other then ran over and started snapping the the heels if our eleven year old. I got close enough that my boot could be applied and he was sent on his merry way. Owner came rushing over to me. But thought better about saying anything and gathered dogs up and out leads on them. Fine if people want dogs. But they need to be kept under control. I got into an argument a few years ago in Balrath woods over same thing. Terrier running loose started jumping up on kids frightening them, so I lifted it with a kick and sent it back towards owner who wanted to call guards. Got very heated when I insisted she called guards.

Highly unlikely, unless either he had encountered that dog before, or a vet read the dogs chip and got owners name from database. If that was the case, it was quick woirk. No blame attaches to the owners father who did not secure the dog, apparently. Will not get a PM done, because it is too expensive? If the farmer has a lot of ewes slip their lambs, he will learn the meaning of "expensive"
