Not the one I got a couple of years back. Left cheek of the backside if I remember right. To be fair maybe I could have got it in the arm but she probably wanted to see my arse anyway.

Foxglove - he's 4 and a half, and had his pre-school boosters 2 weeks ago, which I pointed out in my initial post.

He's fine, apparently the tetanus in the DPT&T covers him and he's fine, he'd only have needed it if his boosters weren't up to date, or it may have been given as a precaution if there had been serious damage, but since it's only a flesh wound he's not going to need it

[Foxglove]

Argh - oops

Damn early morning at work and no sleep.

Glad to hear he is fine. Must have been a real worry.

Aye it was, especially since I'm shit scared of dogs and I've totally gone out my way to make sure I never passed that fear onto Finn - all seems a bit pointless now

I think it was probably a hell of a lot worse for you as Finn's mum especially with your fear of dogs.

Good to hear Finn is OK.

Nasty dog

What was the dog made of? Dogs that are made of soap are easy to scare away. Dogs that are made of green rope are the worst, they bite a lot.

It was made of hair One of those wee walking rug thingies.

I hate dogs. Even worse are rodents that masquerade as dogs. If you're going to get a dog, get a real one instead of a soft toy, innit?

[LesMTS]

You're damn right about the stupid pixie-dogs. I like dogs, but only proper ones. I'm going to get an Alaskan Malamute when I have enough resources.

[djtoast]

i take it the dog wasn't foaming or anything? PRETTY sure there's no rabies in the uk at the mo.

hope you're both okay

[Foxglove]

I like huskies but not really practical to own one and it is too warm to have one in this country

I prefer cats though

Dogs made of sausage are tasty.

I was once attacked by a dog made of plum-pudding, luckily I had just read a book that told me that dogs made of pudding are terrified of spiders. So, I merely adopted the stance of a spider and the dog made of plum-pudding quickly legged it.

You grew 4 extra limbs or did you have 4 appropriate items with you to pretend you had the requisite number of appendages?

[LesMTS]

I employed a mirror in such a manner that the dog was compelled to believe I was a creature possessing 8 limbs, I also mimicked the terrifying sound of an angry spider.

That is quick thinking in the face of danger.

Impressive

Did the SAS teach you such calm action under such extreme conditions?

Are these dogs confined to Dumpdee?

[LesMTS]

Columbo taught me how to remain calm under extreme circumstances.

These dogs are tropical creatures but this one had been hibernating in a box of pineapples which was shipped to Dumpdee.
