The National Trust in in England has a somewhat different approach where the main concern seems to be the wellfare of the dogs should they get lost or chased by farm animals.

Bein' an admirer of both dogs & native birds, while I understand your frustration I also understand that DOC doesn't want pooches eating, maiming and killing our native birds which is why they're banned!

In an ideal world all dogs owners would be responsible and considerate when it comes to managing their beloved canines and we'd be able to take them everywhere but because of the people out there who don't give a shit (i.e. leaving their dogs excrement all over public places...don't get me started!) we all have to abide by the ban. I agree it sucks but I also really like Kiwi and don't want them bein' munched.

It would be great if they had a dog section in the buses and trains in Welli eh! I often think of the trains especially it would be awesome!

Yeah, He's cute alright! I'm babysitting him this weekend as my daughter is away on a girl's weekend with her sister and my wife. The son-in-law has gone to Aus for a week to visit his Mum, so I'm "stuck" with him, sigh.. such a chore... NOT!

There was also a time when a dog didn't have to go outside to injoy a smoke

It could be worse...I know of quite alot of dogs that rarely get out of thier cage or off the chain...all are owned by hunters or farmers

I like breads too but not scones but they might not count cause they don't have yeast.

Vogels is my favorite but Molenberg is good and white bread is fine if that's all there is.

Homemade bread is yummy.

Toast is cooked bread.

Does dog taste like chicken?

Hey Gareth, Have you gone to the dogs literally?

You can see the National Trust guidlines here
Albiet this is England where we prefer dogs to children.
Many of the hotels have dog menus etc

He goes and gets himself another dog, ffs, and here's this so-called 'lover of all things free' with this poor, god-forsaken mutt in a concrete jungle.

What happened to the first one? Is your brother Korean?
