Hi,
I feel I need to rant a bit here. I was walking Leo this morning over some school fields that belong to a private school near where I live. There is a public right of way. Out of no where came a black lab. As usual Leo tail wagging wanting to say hello. There was the usual sniffing when suddenly the lab attacked Leo.
It was awful, Leo was yelping like mad and I managed to get the lab off him.I picked him up so the lab couldnt get to him.
Walking towards me was one of the grounds men a big grin on his face!! I asked him if the dog was his to which he replied yes. He then said quite cheerfull 'Get in to a scrap did they"
I said No your dog attacked my dog. He was quite cheerful when he said He's never done that before.
I pointed out that he'd done it now hadnt he!
I said if he could control his dog he should keep it on a lead.
He was totally noplussed by this.
Anyway luckily Leo seems fine, Im on the other hand not!!!:
My main concern is that this idiot lets his unpredictable volatile dog run lose around a school playing field.
I have phoned the school to report him as Im really concerned that dog could attack a child.
Am I being over hysterical do you think or was I right to let the school know?
