I cursed this thread today, i knew it would happen. I got a call to go find a mastiff in a field in the middle of nowhere when i got there i found a very angry mastiff cross that was running round a field the size of two football pitch right next to a field with 50 or sheep in, the dog was probably 12 stone and could have killed the lot in no time. We never got the dog as it did one into some woods and it got dark so im dreading work tomorrow
While trying in vain to catch the thing, a farmers wife pulls up and asks if i want it shooting and tells me in no uncertain terms that if it comes near her farm that its getting shot.
I dont buy that “No such thing as bad dogs it only bad owners” thing, you get bad dogs like you get bad people. What with inbreeding and eugenics, surely its has an effect on mental stability.
Just my opinion.
