As the title says, I’m ready for the grief I may possibly get.
I want to talk (moan) about dogs. More specific, dog owners. What is it with these/you people? Just because you are a dog lover, it doesn’t automatically follow that I’m one too. In fact, I can’t be doing with the majority 
of dogs/owners.
Take my neighbour (please). He has two spaniels. Now both are well behaved and both will respond to his commands, but I’m not interested in either animal. So I get quite upset when the bl**dy animals start jumping up at me when they see me. He has a bit of a bad leg, so by the time he has hauled himself out of the local field, where he walks to dogs they are already hyped-up. I don’t think there can be anything more revolting than being licked by a tongue that has been God knows where before hand.
Moan over

Sorry Tony but you made me giggle with this one. I do like dogs, but have no illusions they are saints. An over-eager one covered my legs in mud (no joking) on my way to Darwen Tower a few months ago. The owners were fairly mortified. Luckily I had jeans on rather than a dress and they were a bit muddy anyway.

The dogs recognise you, and are showing affection. Pet them. You may be surprised. It sounds like you don’t like your neighbour…

Hi. Many thanks for your comment. I value all comments because it means you have taken the trouble to read my posts.
Either I have not expressed myself too well, or you have missed the whole point of this post. The ‘dog’ is not the problem the ‘neighbour’ is an example. I have no problem with either per se. The problem I have is what the person becomes when they are with their dog. Nothing else seems to be important for some of them when they are with their dog. Maybe a slight exaggeration to say the ‘majority of dog owners’ but it does seem to be most of the ones I’ve met.
As for being ‘surprised’ at 63, nothing surprises me!
