Annoyed again!

Was just walking around a farmer's field, the path is only wide enough for 1 person and saw a couple coming along with 2 lurchers. So, I climbed onto the grassy slope at the side to let them pass. Buster was on his lead and I also held onto his collar while I tried to keep my balance on the slippy slope (in my slippy flip-flops.)

The man of the couple past first, he seemed barely able to smile when I said hello (and no 'thank you' or anything.) Then the woman and 2nd dog came past and Buster thrust his head forward to sniff the dog, causing me to overbalance and leave go of his collar.

Buster saw this as a great opportunity to see if the dog wanted to play with him and jumped up on hind legs at the dog. The other dog did the same but was growling. Within seconds, both dogs were by their owners sides, both being on leads. The man however, said to me 'Can you not keep that thing under control?'

I told him that Buster only wants to play but he held his hand up as if to say shut up, I said 'listen to me he only...' That's as far as I got, the man said 'I'm not listening to you, you're full of sh*t, and you should muzzle it'

I explained to the man the shortcomings of his personality and that I should perhaps put a muzzle on him. Thanks, rant over.

These morons are everywhere .... next time i wouldn't move out the way i'd just keep walking straight into them and let them move !

I always pull mine aside for people but the ruder they get the
more my patience wears thin and the more i am developing an attitude of why should i?

i hate it when people dont say thankyou when you have let them past so now i say it for them in a very loud voice and then say manners dont cost a thing....hate ignorant people like what you have met...

What a rude man! Next time i'd say thank you for him just like squidgy said! Manners are free & it sounds like he needs to learn some. Poor Buster, he was just being playfull.

Lots of dog owners out there with the same lack of manners unfortunately, I just smile to my self and walk on by,

I always pull charlie over as she pulls towards people to sniff them. Some people are so rude, Grr how can he think he can talk to you like that :o
