Morning all

Walked Ozzy on this mild, but grey, day. One of those days where we crossed paths with the one dog in the village who clearly doesn't know the difference between canine sexes and has a particular "fondness" for our Oz His owner is an elderly chap with no proper control of his dog. Now, his dog is a lovely Labrador, with a happy disposition, but he will not leave Ozzy alone. His owner, also a lovely chap, does not take too much notice of his frisky dog but Ozzy does find it somewhat disconcerting (to say the least) when the Lab tries to you-know-what Ozzy at every opportunity and every *where*! No part of his body is left to chance. Ozzy isn't an aggressive dog, although he does try to warn the Lab that he isn't impressed, but to no avail. I know some people find it amusing, but watching my dog being subjected to this ... onslaught ... from every angle ... isn't particularly nice. So, with the owner not taking control, or indeed any notice at all of his dogs poor manners, the Lab got the full blast Sgt Major "LEAVE IT!" experience from me which worked a treat because he did back off, quite swiftly. Mind you, so did his owner hope I haven't given him a headache

Lots of important stuff to be getting on with (out and about) this afternoon so not much time for home or garden today.

Smiles and vibes for all xxMxx

 

Good morning everyone,
Have a good day stay warm and dry and above all safe and well. God bless.

He knows you'll pay him double time on a sunday

 

Good afternoon fellow WW'ers

His reaction was to also tell the Lab off with a little growl (almost as if my reaction gives him permission to react ) He's able to distinguish due to my body language at the time (plus, it helps that he didn't have anything to "Leave!" ). As pack animals, it is in their best interests to know where the Alpha is, what the Alpha's body language is telling them and to judge what response they need to make

Lovely thought, but, in all honesty I have no idea. I was his 4th owner/home before his 1st birthday so he'd had a very unsettled puppyhood. It was the name he came with and I made the executive decision that, as it was the only constant in his little world, I wouldn't change it. Then, it was straight off to training classes so he could learn proper doggy manners (and who's boss ) plus give him a sense of belonging. I adore him! I do tend to call him Ozzywoz though, as in "Ozzy WAS someone else's dog but now his is mine" Sorry for rabbiting on, but, you did get me on my "pet" subject

Technically ... I did!



He was waiting behind a glass panel, in a bay, in the Dogs Trust compound.
