Here's a thread for the miserable lot who don't like dogs.

I'll start with the dogs I met this morning:

Monty the standard poodle - young, bonkers and completely harmless. Ran with me for a hundred yards or so before deciding his owner was probably a better bet for some breakfast.

Zak the german shepherd - impeccably behaved as always but does like me to stop and make a fuss of him.

The gang of four - four whippets who, as usual, stared at me in total bemusement as I ran past.

My very good friends Jenny the border collie and Molly the border collie/black lab cross - they pinned me in a corner and wouldn't let me escape until I'd thrown their sticks for them.
