Stupid Dog Owner In Public

[Robbi]

Thanks everyone, I still feel a goose but glad to know it has happened to others

I was a bit worried about Jess as I had to go in to work for a few hours but she is none the worse for wear after being sat on by a ten tonne bum!

3 new leads are on the shopping list as I now will be too worried about another one snapping.

You didn't break anything Robbi.. you weren't trying.

I've broken a wrist walking ONE dog... but two more dogs got into the onlead mix.

How about my effort, I broke my wrist three years ago taking just myself for a walk on flat ground. Idiot!

You're ok Robbi, can't be perfect all the time, have a giggle about it. Brass clips

good post..sorry you had that misadventure

erny..good advice re the clips...ill take heed ...thanks

Thanks for the advice on lead clips Erny.

I've had similar problems with horse leads, it's why I prefer putting a looped end lead through a rope halter -no clip to break if the horse pulls-.

Oh, and a lot of the better silver clips are nickel plated over brass but are hard to tell apart from the 'cheap and nasty' (and not necessarily $$$$ cheap either!) nickel plated over crappy metal made in China ones.

Oh Robbi you poor thing, glad to hear everyone is ok.
