Absolutely fuming .....

I am fuming at how irresponsible some dog owners can be... Inca has been trained from day 1 to come back when called (or whistled) and to sit and ignore other dogs if we don't want her to go over to them, her recall is brilliant and if she has her tennis ball with her then she isn't interested in anything apart from the tennis ball.. But yesterday the OH took her for her ususal run around a MASSIVE field with her tennis ball.. She was quite happily playing when a fella came onto the field with a huge american bulldog, my OH threw the ball in the opposite direction and of went Inca to get her ball back and as she came running back to her daddy, the american bulldog just flew past my OH and barged Inca into the floor an as she was trying to roll over to get up it grabbed her by the throat and tried to drag her backwards upto it's owner.. Poor Inca was squealing and trying to kick the dog of with her front feet but it was really trying to get a good grip on her throat but luckily my OH had raced to help Inca and kicked out at the dog which prompted it to let her go and run of back to its owner..
My OH told the fella he was gunna report him & the dog to which the fella replied go on then and i'll shoot you in the face !!!!!... What planet do these people come from ... I have reported the dog to the dog warden and i'm just waiting to see if i need to report it to the police and before you start to worry Inca has escaped luckily without any puncture wounds or marks but is just abit quieter than ususal today...

I am so annoyed that numpty's like that can be in charge (or not !!) of a big breed like an american bulldog.. It could have done Inca alot of damage if it wanted to and the owner wasn't bothered by how it had reacted or treated Inca at all....

Thats me rant over now ....

How horriable, poor Inca and OH. What a complete and utter bast**d, I think he should be reported for threatening behaviour, not that it would get you anywhere but I know it would make me feel better! Why do these people just have so little respect for everyone around them, and they really don't deserve to own a dog, nor do they no how to own a dog. Its a crying shame because its the dogs who suffer not the complete wasters that own them. Massive hugs to Inca poor girl.

I'd definitely report it to the police. The idiot can't be allowed to get away with not only an out of control dog, but using threatening behaviour as well.

Poor Inca - it must have frightened the life out of her!

Oh poor Inca! What a knob!! It's bad enough that the ABD went for a dog that was minding her own business and playing happily, imagine if it had been a child playing?

And the owners reaction is completely inexcusable.

I would definitely report the dogs behaviour and the owners reaction to the police. The dog could kill the next dog it goes for, or, heaven forbid, injure a child. It definitely needs reporting.

Poor Inca..................that's terrible.

Hope Inca is not too traumatised by the whole thing.

The owner sounds like a loser

It really winds me up this we have had a few issues like this on our park why do they let them of the lead

poor Inca! I can't believe someone would act that way!

Thanks everyone for the comments and concerns towards Inca... She seems to be ok and is still fine with other dogs as she's just had a play with a westie, an a boxer who all tried to run around with a Hula Hoop !!!..

The dog warden has logged the details of the incident and has told me to report the other owners behaviour to the police... but when i reported the behaviour to the police they said did you see him with a gun !!.. NO obviously not, i told them ... They didn't wanna know unless we saw him carrying a gun !! ... I said surely he can't go around using threatening behaviour like that and this was the reply i got ... Maybe he was having a bad day ... Go figure that out .... Unbelieveable !!!!

That was to be expected

OMG how terrible, an I am not supprised by the police being like that they are useless when it comes to things like this.

They always seem to concentrate on things that are not really much of an issue yet things thats do need dealing with they dont want to know unless you have proof for them to do something about it.

Poor Inca big hugs to her

Typical response from the police that is! people like him shouldn't own dogs full stop

Hope Inca is okay

I absolutely HATE dealing with irresponsible owners! Must have been a terrifying situation for you!

What a scarey situation to be in.. so glad Inca is okay. Hope they get the twit !! There are morons everywhere....
When Winston was going to the vets for only his second lot of needles this old bloke was letting his labrador retreiver run around the oval near the vets, that had signs everywhere saying NO DOGS ALLOWED. Well his stupid mutt saw us and raced across the oval straight to us.. I was so angry because Winston wasn't fully vaccinated and I was keeping him away from any strange dogs.I picked Winston up as his mutt was trying to leap up and sniff him, he was calling his dog, but it was in no hurry to go back to him... Well Tony yelled out that no dogs were allowed on the oval and the old bloke told Tony to go stuff himself!! Tony said that is the trouble with the world now people just do what they want, and the bloke said again Get stuffed. Charming !! We were so angry !! He might say that to the wrong person one day !!

OMG!!! some people really do need sense knocking into them!!! glad inca is ok poor thing!! .. what an idiot!!

Police are bleeding useless, if you'd have taken matters into your own hands with ABT Owner, bet the police would have been interested then !!
grrr
Glad Inca wasnt badly hurt poor girl xx

and the police wonder why crimes and things are not prevented ... hmm go figure!!!
