How are all of your reactive/unsociable dogs coping with the bank holiday weekend? Biscuit has had no less than 5 off lead dogs charge at her in the period of 35 minutes, we've given up and come home!

Yep we were the same earlier but Oz had his stick so tolerated it much better but I did warn the owners not to come too close, luckily they all listened but who knows what will happen later?

No one in the woods this afternoon just us and that suits me   

Not that we have many open places to walk at the best of times but we just stay well away on holidays and keep to our little quiet area and lots of extra play/fetch/catch/chase in the garden

Glad Oz was okay! I'm so jealous Inez, wish Martyn was here so we could go to the moors Think you're very wise Lisa! We're not going out again today, will try late this evening just before dark. Just not worth the stress! xx

It was surprisingly quiet this afternoon. Those that did wander over were all friendly and Flo even played with two !

Makes a pleasant change.

Ah that sounds like a lovely afternoon Ian, glad she got to have a little play too! We did have a silver lining that Biscuit let me handle it on each occasion, she lay down behind me (very still and "ready") but still allowed me to take over and get the dogs out of her space, and then went straight into a sit/focus as soon as they were out of the safe zone. Very proud of her  

We are sticking to ball throwing in nanny's big garden lots of safe running about. Wish I lived in the countryside with nobody about

Its ok here but we have a lot of space and I haven't been out on a weekend - may change my mind tomorrow - although Moo is very social so its me that doesn't want to see the kids

No problems, Daisy made friends with two cute Spanish guys!   one of them knelt down to fuss her she was licking his face!!   he thought she loved him, I didn't have the heart to say she licks anyone given the chance!   

Loving the quality time with the other half and ice and blue no one in the fields today it was great  

We changed are walking route today but it was really quiet

Our walks today were also very quiet. I think they must be at the beach lol

Oh really?! Must have just been unlucky I guess! Martyn's coming with tomorrow, it's generally easier when there are two of us

oh yeah all the small fluffy things are comming out offlead right now...followed by mum dad and 2.5 children... when i say my dog wants to play with there dog they dont get that i mean in the small fluffy toy kinda way... i clench when i see one of these things come running up and the guys tails go bolt upright    they do nothing so im left hanging onto two nutballs that think an ovegrown squirrel has just shown up...

Hee hee, so true! Moo is off lead and does nothing but can look intimidating!

You could go up on the moors tomorrow then Rachael. I love it up there. What part do you go to?  

I've been ill this weekend so hubby has been walking Rocky on his own mainly, Rocky gets a bit depressed if he hasn't said hello to anyone so they have been going to the small park near us. He hasn't said that it has been overly busy thankfully.

We've just kept close to home and it hasn't been to bad xx
