Hey who are you calling scruffy, and my friend is not large. No screeching, although there might have been all round if one had bitten me. Quiet and concise reprimand as I said not even one profanity.
Idiots that own dogs.

Decent people don't believe in violence against children, strange ethos you have there and thankfully long ago outlawed.

Sounds like you handled the situation well didn't see any rant in the post as always interested to see these types of write ups so thanks for sharing. Can't see how she could have felt threatened being guarded by four Rhodesian Ridgebacks which quite clearly were never under her control.
Fairhill, Nothing wrong with fair and reasonable parental control, after all it’s how the young learn in nature. I believe we are storing up a massive problem that will come to a head when this generation ‘take over’ running life in general,
I feel sorry for my grandchildren having to make their way in life amid all the strange ways of the woke brigade.
As an aside I well remember getting a “thick ear” from our village bobby when caught scrumping apples, bl**dy hurt at the time but did me no harm and instilled a healthy respect for the law I think.

No rant on "HERE" Muppet , just what can happen with four loose dogs. No control at all, but she wasn't intentionally coursing. Just you're average care in the community gone wrong.
Yep!!Nice to call people Muppets, who replied to your thread

Well done. Very clever reply. You seriously need help! It certainly read like a rant and you also (not surprisingly) omitted to mention that you had reported it to the feds. Whether she was intentionally coursing doesn't mean that she wasn't. That's like saying that provided you didn't intentionally kill someone when you ran them over that you're not guilty of killing them!
The fact that you so willingly come on here name calling makes me question your version of events at the time of the incident when you were no doubt not in the best frame of mind.
My post, and that of many others before and since wasn't an attack on you but simply advise which you can take or dismiss as you wish. Calling us names for replying is pathetic and totally uncalled for!

I'm a firm believer in fair and reasonable parental control willowbank.
What I do not believe in is violence against children, be they your own or other peoples children. It's not the first time that poster has come on here advocating violence or threats of violence or boasting about scaring the sh*t out of youngsters and I've pulled him up on it before. They are the actions of an out and out coward and a want to be bully.
I'm far from a snowflake, I was brought up in a large council estate in a large family during probably the biggest recession our country ever experienced, times were tough and so were the people, if you wanted to have a fight and we often did, there was always someone your own age and size wiling to have a go but bullies were never tolerated and always got their comeuppance.
She can say you fiddled with her bearded clam….it’s really her word against you and your big aggressive smelly mate…Hey who are you calling scruffy, and my friend is not large.

Getting involved in a confrontation over out of control dogs, when you've got a firearm with you, is a very tricky situation to be in. It would be easy to think that the firearm somehow gives you the upper hand, but it doesn't. Quite the opposite.
I know, from personal experience, how these situations can develop, and I suggest that quite a few of the posters on here do not have that experience.
The three golden rules are:
1) Unload your firearm and place it in its slip (if you have one), or sling it over your shoulder, or even lay it on the ground (you can always place your foot on it). Anything so long as it's not actually in your hands.
2) Never threaten to shoot the dog, or even suggest that you would be within your rights to do so.
3) Report the incident immediately. It may seem insignificant to you, but if the dog owner rings in first with a tall tale you will be the loser.
Also goes without saying that, if possible, use your phone to record the encounter.
I'm not commenting on how the OP handled the situation, just giving advice to anyone who might find themselves facing a similar scenario.

Exactly, same goes for educating ignorance- no cure pending.
There is a difference, OR there WAS a difference between outright violence , and proper chastisement.... the reason we are in such a crappy state of affairs today.
I was patiently waiting for the usual third one to criticize whatever I post, perhaps he's on holiday.What are you going on about???
A bit like the opening of McBeth.
