This topic is getting way off line, I mean, how many cats (I'm talking puddy cats, not 'Lion & Tiger' type cats) run up & scratch someone? Eh?
Keep it real.

The dog gave itself the heart attack and ok,very sad if you're the owner. But on an uninvolved level, the picture of the yappy dogs sprinting cockily in their pack after their poor, defenceless quarry (no doubt egging each other with doggy war cries) and then the utter dumbfounded deflation of the pack as their 'heroic' leader just keels over in mid yap...got to admit it's a little bit funny? 😆

When animals become more important that humans it's a sad day.

No there are plenty of humans I would rather see drop dead in the road before my dog does

Your again taking my quotations out of context.

Giving animals what they deserve for a little nip, scratch etc could be as little as a pushing away, a tap on the nose, a telling off, depends on the circumstances.

i would call it as it is. If i was out riding a bike then using my feet to keep an animal from biting my ankles to me would be acceptable, but if an animal (dog, cat or wild) shows aggression, wanting to inflict pain and continous with its doing so then i will do what i have to to prevetn the animal from doing so.
Now, if your cat was on my lap (hypothetically) and i was stroking it and it scratched me then it would get pushed away as that would be my knee-jerk reaction. If it actually jumped towards my face and done so then i would react as seen fit.
Dont get carried away with your defense against me, i do love animals (altho allergic to them). My point being, and this is regardless of animal or human, i will react to a situation as i see fit but in no circumstances do i see an animals life as more important than a humans.

Now what the OP did in my eyes was completely correct and relevant to the situation. What happened to the dog was not the OP's fault and for its death, thats a tradegy. Would or should he feel guilty, not at all.

I'm with Edric64 on this. The more people I meet; the more I love my dog.

How can something get so over excited that it blows its heart up? Pre-existing medical condition?

There again I think horses can be rode until they keel over. (if the films are to be believed)

I like this thread,

Some seriously angry people.

If it was me against the Dog, i'd make sure i won.

If it was dog against my three year old, dog would get a bigger kicking (after SS_Shep jr poked his eye's out and stuffed a toy car down its troat)

BUT if the dog is innocent and doesn't bother me it can go on with its life.

No I'm feeling the rage, on my ride home this morning a swan looked at me in a funny way, I just let it go. But I was wrong, on my way to work tomorrow I'm going to find that swan and kick the shite out of it!

A dog chases a bike, keeps up for a while then drops down dead?

That was not an old dog with a heart that had come to the end of its natural life.

That dog had been [b]OVERFED[/b] by its [b]IRRESPONSIBLE[/b] and ultimately [b]CRUEL[/b] owner.

The owner bears all the blame for this. They probably gave it little "treats" - a bit of chocolate here, a saucer of beer there, a few chips mixed in with the Pedigree Chum. And ultimately, when that poor innocent animal was doing what comes naturally (chasing cyclists, biting them and getting caught in their wheels) it paid the ultimate price.

We should all [b]mourn[/b] that animal, for it was a victim, killed by the person it trusted the most.

Two minutes silence. Again.

If your cat tried to scratch me then it would get the biggest kicking in its life.

No he's not taking anything out of context, you're just contradicting yourself

And why take it out on an animal that has no idea that its doing anything wrong, do you rub your kids nose in a nappy to get them to use a potty? do you beat them if they accidental scratch you, or poke you in the eye.

what a prize idiot you are

one of my dogs died this morning
they are normally locked in the back but unknown to us a visitor left the gate open
I found him 100 yards down the road from my front gate
Vet said it was a heart attack but he also had large internal bleeding from a blow to his side

Warton, i'm not contradicting myself. If that cat TRIED to scratch my eyes out i would defend myself more severely than if he just did it whilst i was stroking him. Read what i said first.

And why take it out on an animal that has no idea that its doing anything wrong, do you rub your kids nose in a nappy to get them to use a potty? do you beat them if they accidental scratch you, or poke you in the eye.

No i wouldn't but alot of dog trainers rub there pooches noses in there wee and then take them outdoors to teach them to do it outside and i wouldn't do that to 'my' kids. In fact i wouldn't like my kids to go outside full stop to do a pee n poo and then follow behind them with a 'kiddie scoop'.

But then i suppose if your comparing them then why dont you just stick a collar round your kids neck, add a little tag and call them 'lassie' as well.......... idiot

Think your being the prize idiot here

Negative reinforcement has been frowned upon for some years now, I doubt you'd find any good trainer that still does this...

anyway sorry if I got a bit carried away with the dog v kid thing, not the greatest comparison in the world!

radoggair - far more sensible response this time and one that I can live with.

Your first post however just highlighted the notion that some people seem to think animals should be hurt for very inoccuous animal like (strangely enough) behaviour.

mmm ... +1 to TheArtistFormerlyKnownAsSTR, Keva etc

Of course being chased by a dog is scary and threatening, but there is a difference between an owner who deliberately lets their dog do this (in which case get exceeding angry at the owner); and a dog that might have escaped accidently and is then defending its patch (which sounds like the case with the OP if he has ridden up that way before without any problems). I can't see any need in taking enjoyment if the dogs suffers or dies.

Using violence against any animal is only acceptable in order to defend yourself in an immediate situation. If your child is knocked over by a dog running, then of course you're justified in being angry at it's owner - but kicking the dog with steel-toe capped boots and throwing it down the lane is unacceptable unless this the only option in order to defend your child? If not, then in my opinion violence against animals is unacceptable unless in immediate self-defence, as it is against humans.

Are animals 'more' important than humans? No ... they are equally as important in terms of having a right to not be subjected to abuse or unneccessary violence. And on balance, attacks and abuse on dogs / cats etc by humans far exceeds that of attacks by dogs on people (maybe a trip down to the RSPCA will give you an idea of the deliberate abuse that animals suffer at the hands of humans)

Confused by this post. I assumed the OP had managed to take a dump, contrive a situation for a random dog to wander through it and then trample it round the owner's house

what a ****ing complete knobber...

right or wrong it's not his fault the dog was not under it's owners control or that it died through it's own over excitement.
i can't say your 'choice' words are justified either.

No-one has claimed it's his fault Mr Smith - it's more his apparent glee at the hound's demise that caused the initial reaction.

b) the owner is not involved
