    Angry Grrrrr! Rant, rant, rant, Grrr!

    Just venting my anger for a minute.
    I just can't believe some idiots!
    We have a few acres of land that has stock fencing all the way around it to keep the dogs in. Had the dogs out today and all of a sudden saw them running round the cows field next door.
    Luckily they're obedient and came back as soon as we shouted them but I couldn't get the dane back over the fence cos he's just too big to jump (never attempted to bless him) so we get the two shepherds while I scale the fence and walk round the land with the dane to shove him back in where they'd managed to get out of. What did I find??????
    The neighbour had decided to take down our fence without asking so that he could drive a jcb onto our land - without asking- and dig out drainage to his land - without asking. The dogs had obviously legged it out from the fence he took down.
    Hubby went to see what was going on and the man says that he saw the dogs get out! Blinkin charming! What an idiot. The dogs could have chased the cows or the calves and been in serious trouble or they could have gotten out onto the road.

    I'm so angry cos the guy must have asked the farmers permission to take down his fence too but just didn't bother even letting us know - not even when he saw the dogs leg it. How cheeky is that???

    Rant over - but still extremely angry. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

    LOL. I'll be the first to admit I can moan but seriously would you not feel the same if that had happened to you?

    If someone turned up on your land in a JCB, took down a fence and just watched your dogs run off into a cows field without any permission to be there and not even having the courtesy to let you know that your pets were out, would you not feel the right to moan?

    If the dogs had worried the cows and their babes or the sheep what would have happened?
    If the dogs had ran out into the road and caused an accident what would have happened?
    If the dogs had bounded over to someones child and knocked them over what would have happened?
    They may be a lot of what if's Ice box but we take all these precautions to prevent those things from happening and one inconsiderate idiot comes along and risks the life of our pets, the lives of passing motorists and possible trauma to local cattle. Hmmmmmmm, damn right I'll moan!

    Why is everyone so wound up? Nothing happened, thank goodnes so what's the point in wittering on and on about what could have happened. If we were to live our lives like this we would never be done moaning!! I saw my neighbour drop a banana skin this afternoon, I could have slipped and broken my neck.

    I have animals and kids. She is just making a mountain out of a mole hill. I could see her point if something did happen and ok the farmer or digger driver was at fault taken down the fence. But why come on here ranting and raven over something that never happened .

    The farmer had no right to take down your fence without your permission and if your dog had done anything to his cattle he would have been well within his rights to have your dog put down which would have been sad as he caused the problem in the first place.

    I think you're wrong. But I suspect we're not talking about trespass here. I'm no lawyer, but I would hazard a guess that the neighbour broke several laws - and he certainly wasn't behaving in a neighbourly fashion. He should have at least asked if it was ok to do what he did.
