Seen it recently. The staff asked the people to leave with their dog if they didn’t get it to behave.
Aye, seen it local. Fair enough, we choose our places carefully as Stacey doesn't do small. So we need to make sure she's got the space to lay down without being a trip hazard.
Case in point.

I just use that post image website and use “hotlink for forums”
I have no issues with getting images. I have already posted pics in here :-)
What I have issues with is the text box binning stuff half way through.
"Which shop do you have?"
We basically sell Puffin memorabilia!
Talking of training, this is one of my favourite pictures of Stacey at one of her Kennel Club 'Good Citizen' training classes. She gets bored, doesn't like to sit so will simply lay down.
She does this in shops, pubs, basically anywhere where we're static for too long.
Remembrance service not too long ago:
@relapsed_mandalorian I really wish one of our local pubs had that much space! Round here all the pubs are just too small to comfortably fit my daft long hound and still allow people to move around.
Nearly managed it once, but he insisted on unfurling his tail.
Anyway. General word of warning. Greyhounds (and often other sighthounds) multiply. Either in the house or by the fact you have inadvertently joined a cult.

@relapsed_mandalorian, those 2 pics have made me chuckle.
I just see how far it’ll run with me, I reckon my record is about three quarters of a mile…
Why? What happens to the dog when its 3/4 mile away from its owner? Or do you not really care?
Cyclists arrive so quickly its often before a responsible dog owner can get their dog on the lead. If I am out riding and see a dog off the lead I always slow down, give the owner a chance to get it on a lead, make a point of exchanging a few kind words. Likewise if out with the dog, I always put it on the lead when a cyclist approaches as I dont know if they are scared of dogs. Its really not difficult is it?
@seriousrikk that was a cheeky mid-week walk and a pint. No chance of that sort of space at peak pub times! We are lucky that there are a few good 'local' pubs around that can accomodate a long dog or two. We're off to Northumberland in September just outside the school holidays so hoping to fully enjoy the area with the hound.
@lunge she's a character who makes me smile daily.
Jazz, the Lakeland trail hound:

Those photos are brilliant 😂
BORED! I'M BORED NOW!............ I'M STILL BORED!
😂 My mate has a lovely wire haired long dog. It's basically a big hot rug.
Its hard work being on holiday near the beach

Seahouses?
Unless you mean bongs then I have no idea.

It's not my responsibility. If they've chosen to let their dog of the lead on a shared path like the TPT; some sections of which are flat, wide, straight ex-railway lines used by dog walkers, horse-riders, cyclists, runners, families with kiddies - y'know The Public, then it's thier responsibility to make sure they have it under control, not mine. I hear what your saying about responsible dog owners and that's fine, its never those folks, it's the folks for whom the dog is an 'accessory', a 'fur-baby'. Those folks are the ones you that you have to suggest that maybe it would be best for everyone that they pretend they have to share the space with other people. I live in south Manchester, perhaps it's a city thing, I dunno.
Its really not difficult is it?
You'd have thought not, but there you go.
Randal the rescue GWP subtly suggesting that he might like that leftover chicken
Sweetest, most gentle dog in the world, ever.
"Seahouses?"
Yes. The Puffins Burrow, opposite Lewis chippy.
Is Oscar the Border Terrorist?
Puffins are big business in Seahouses!
Yes, that’s him.
Indeed they are.
I've just read the 'disproportionally' thread, I'll STFU
We lost Lara, our Miniature Schnauzer suddenly in January. She was a gem and never looked aged, even though she would have been 13 in June. I cried a lot.
Our family, home and routine was not the same, so we now have another Miniature Schnauzer, Oscar who is 10 weeks old.
Different colour (black), different sex and different personality, albeit loves human contact - when he wants it.
Commands are coming on, happy to be in the car - recognise he is young and it's down to us to ensure all good in that area.
We are so much looking forward to getting him out for walks from the weekend onwards.
Would post pics, but don't know how to....
My worst dog for down the pub problems was a Lemon Beagle. I had to carry a shitty stick to keep the female students away, the tri-colour Corgi or sawn off alsatian was a similar student magnet.

@benz - upload to postimages.org, click hotlink for forums, paste directly into reply box. Or sign up and post pics directly.
Here’s Tsuki.

She’s very quiet.
usually curled up somewhere fastidiously cleaning herself like a cat.
Will sleep all day, or walk for miles.
Doesn’t like swimming, climbs trees.
Barks at upturned buckets and flags.
Not a fan of posh dog food.

... I’ll STFU
I'll believe [i]that[/i] when I see it! 🤣
It’s coffee time for Oscar and I. Lots of people in here in the doggy bit, even those who don’t have one.
"It’s coffee time for Oscar and I."
Causing absolute chaos. Won't someone think of the dog hatez.
Yes. The Puffins Burrow, opposite Lewis chippy.
Well I never. I believe I bought some oven gloves off you a couple of weeks ago.

To be fair a caffeinated border terrorist could be chaos!
"Well I never. I believe I bought some oven gloves off you a couple of weeks ago."
Me personally or the Mrs?
Which oven gloves?
Causing absolute chaos. Won’t someone think of the dog hatez.
Seconds after posting that another dog walked past and growled at him. Oscar wasn’t happy.
He was told off and is now sat quiet.
Brave dog growling at the dog equivalent of a Border Reiver!
Haha!
Yeah you don’t pick a fight with something that won’t give up.
Lola loves swimming, she's also strangely interested in finding what's in the bottom of a bucket 🙂
No toy survives first contact with the Labrador. Yes that is our lawn, it was feb last year and the builders had been trampling over it for about two months. It doesn't look much better now to be fair 😉

Wilbur, loves both dog friendly Michelin star restaurants, and a day in the mountains.
New coaster arrived in the shop today.

Wow thats cute benz!
My mums shih tzu cross bichon frisé had pups a week or so ago. Tiniest things I've ever seen. This was 3 days old.
A dog has the same annual environmental impact as a Toyota Land Cruiser. You can’t purport to care one bit about the environment and own a dog.
They’re completely irrelevant in modern society and a waste of the world’s resources in a climate crisis. They are also a pain for people who don’t have dogs.
Looking back at that pragmatically:
1) It's already been pointed out that it's closer to a low mileage city car than a land cruiser
2) It probably means the owners will go on less / fewer / no overseas holidays for the next 14 years or so, which saves the dogs carbon footprint each time, per person on a trip to the Med. So for a family of four that's a reduction in their footprint of ~2.25t/year.

Spud (not ours, we were dog-sitting) think's he's a better use of a carbon footprint than a Daewoo Matiz.

Slight detour but... all those morons that got dogs during lockdown and then gave them up when they had to go back into the office (as was staggeringly obvious and predictable) should be ashamed for being so cruel and dumb.

To be fair, a Landcruiser is better use of a carbon footprint than a Daewoo Matiz
Sandy is lovely.
We lost our wonderful little Flo a couple of years ago now and I miss her everyday. She was great company while working from home, pretty much just me and her everyday day, from 8 ‘till 4. She would sleep at my feet and wake at 11 for a coffee ( for me) and snacks ( for her) and we would enjoy a lunchtime power walk most everyday.
We will get another dog in the future, when we circumstances change again and we can commit fully to looking after it. Some lovely dogs on here.
I think dog people know dog people, and I hope that those people walking their dogs don’t think it’s weird that I can’t help but smile when I see a happy dog out for a walk.

Depends, do you need to get around a 1st world country but pathologically object to public transport.
Or make jokes about driving Land-Rovers in the outback and compensate for something?
