Charlie is at his worst when we are just setting off on our walkies and next-door's two cats goad him from the top of the drive, or from underneath my car (he has almost pulled me under there before ).

Lets be honest - accidents and mishaps happen even to the most experienced owners...I mean, we do own labs don't we?  |
Totally agree with you but it doesn't make them too dangerous to use does it? You learn by your mistake and make sure you don't do it again. For example I use Global knives, they are dangerous in the wrong hands. I accidently cut myself when not concentrating but I didn't thrown the baby out with the bathwater and condemn them as too dangerous to use. I was just more careful next time

If you really believe that an occurence that could happen to anybody has to be down to it being " in the wrong hands " then I worry for you ,I really do
It's usual the drivers that believe they are perfect and cannot have an accident that are usually the most dangerous  |
There is absolutely no need to get personal. If the person in control of the dog had been concentrating the accident most probably wouldn't have happened. Lesson learnt the hard way. It doesn't however make them dangerous per se. Not sure where the driving of cars fits but hey ho.

Oh it's a dog attack now is it? I must have missed that bit of information on first post you did. Oh no I didn't you didn't mention it. I think you need to calm down as you are the one talking about incompetence not me
