This lab pounced on conor aggressively, conor and lab, around my ankles, I thumped the lab to try to get him of conor. Chap had no control on his dog he ran up and called the dog off. Dog walked a short distance with his owner and decided to come back. his owner again had to come and fetch him.

When this happened a third time, I shouted at him to hook his dog up on a lead. He then said on retrieving his dog, he wont hurt anyone. So I said he attacked my little dog. To which he replied." Your dog attacked mine first and if you hit my dog again I will pick up yours and throw it over the fence". I was livid.

I am ringing the dog warden today to report an uncontrolled dog.

You handled it better than I would have.
