😆 Hello dd, have you got yours yet?
Wrong 100% don simon. The person has an absolute right to go about their business unbothered by the dog. the dog should be under control at all times.
And TJ arrives.. I agree with the statement that the dog should be under control as you can well see by reading the previous posts. My dog and I also have rights too. The general public have to be under control too. 🙄 You'll be telling me next that I'm supposed to know, without being told, which people do and which people don't have phobias of dogs. Telepathy? 🙄
No - you're supposed to control your dog as if [i]everyone[/i] has a phobia. That way you are being responsible.
That's a troll, right?
AS druidh says. Your dog has no rights. The dog must be under control AT ALL TIMES. This means the dog must to bother anyone else. This is absolute.
If your dog is startled by cyclists its your responsibility to keep it under control. The cyclist does not have to do anything.
What can or can't you do around me because of my phobias? FFS Grow up or grow some!

Certainly not. You just don't get it do you?

well of course but it is all relative> I would put the case you cite more as someone crosses the road on a pelican crossing legitiamelty, driver comes rouind corner does not see them driver runs them over - yes both at "fault" but one is about 99% and one about 1 % . Same with dog so what if I run a bit close to it and it gets spooked - that is not under control is it and if my dog did this it would not be off the lead where people were near - like your dog and cattle.
My original post noted that these kind of things are not a one off attack by an otherwise good dog - the owners are generally aware and just not acting responsibly.
