Blimp takes off...GDG
Yesterday was a beautiful autumn day in the Welsh hills, cold but bright with wonderful autumn colours. The Boys were working well (even made a water retrieve) and all seemed right with the world. So what was it that provoked your correspondent to threaten to slug one of his companions? And mean it.
Big Fat Clue .... it involved an idiot, a walking stick, and my dog "Louis".
Further information ... I boxed in the old Birmingham ABA and have an Irishman's temper.

Thank you, very kind, Mine's a pint.
One of these days I'm gonna need to learn to speak Welsh...there's a few of your fellow Welchmen at work too and mostly I don't get them either, must be me. Welch English does not equal American English at all. Plus, you guys have sayings that don't even begin to translate to American English.Originally Posted by Colonel Blimp

On a driven shoot you'll be expected to load your dogs into a vehicle or trailer along with lots of others; I've mentioned in the past that this is something we train for. However dogs being dogs there is sometimes a bit of argey bargey, where one dog will get a bit territorial and try to block the trailer gate or entrance to others trying to get in. The gentleman in question, judged that Louis, inside the trailer, had growled at his two Labs attempting to get in, so he jabbed him in the face with his stick.
A frank exchange of views followed and I'm happy to report that a reoccurrence of the incident seems unlikely.

eug,
in college once i had the opportunity for sport with an individual i later learned was an accomplished pugulist. this individual had won the birmingham(of alabama, U.S.) welter weight "golden gloves" championship. i was ignorant of the facts of his competitive resume'. at the time knowledge of his history would have made no difference to me.
my appetite for confrontation with this person or any other, was quelled for a long period of time because of his exchange with me!
8mmmag, what i am saying is, "when this sum bi#@h kicked my a$$ proper, it stayed kicked for a while!"

Eug. you did the right thing, it is your responsibility to let your dog know "who is the boss" not someone else with a stick, he should have brought it up to your attention and let you take care of the situation, but instead he took it upon himself to use a stick on your dog so i dont blame you for letting him know how you feel and I still would have been on your side if you used your boxing club of a fist - not the best route to go down but it would have been warranted.

Justin,
It wasn't my dog Louis that growled. It was my friend Grahams BLF; she does it sometimes but it never amounts to anything. I didn't take it up with Mr Idiot at the time, nor will I unless he makes some remark in future.
