having met you the other week when col's boat was adrift/sinking/on fire/broken all at once, I cant help but larf at the thought of you getting bitten by a dog.
general lee, this thread has been highly amusing.
For sale, 1970 Triumph Spitfire-sold, 1947 Lambretta, 1922 Great grandmother, PM for details.
So not only are you going to carry a perfectly capable dog around
you are going to deny yoursdelf a boat on the basis that he/she cannot be left in a kennel for a day.
Have to agree that dogs are not appropriate at the SBS. That goes for children and ugly women too.
I have had dogs and enjoyed them all. but responsible owners are fewer and if they were allowed chaos would ensue.
A dog has moved next door to me
the neighbour came round to tell me he saw it crap in my garden ( there is no fence YET!)
He didn't even clear it up he just watched his dog crap in my garden then went in!!!!!!!!
Have you/your wife got the message yet, Kev? And is there something amiss with your decision-making process re buying a boat? Give me a break, as they say over here!
Kev,
"I can understand that dogs shouldn't be allowed on the boats because some people are allergic to them. Penny would have been carried round the show......"
So how you both supposed to look around the boats?
get a life kev, your wife wont go without the dog, you wont go without the wife ,what happens when you go on holidays abroad ? if the fact that you cant take your mutt to the show is going to prevent you from buying a boat then you shouldnt be on the water .
There are some very good dog kennels in the Southampton and New Forest area,
with a dog of this small stature I would be concerned that the dog might be accidently trampled in the hordes of people that attend the show
Went to the show on Saturday. Must have seen at least half a dozen dogs there (the canine variety!). Most were little pooches being carried by their owners but one or two were being dragged around on their leads and getting trampled on.
