Ali, that's why I phoned Richard before I went off on one and reported the dog owners or gone round there and told them what I thought. Richard is a lot more sensible and laid back than I am. So I've emailed the dog warden, and I'll speak to the neighbours if I see them and ask if they've done anything about the dog, I won't go round there specially.

At the moment I don't walk Domino on my own with the children, they whinge if we go too far and want to hold Domino's lead, she's too strong for them. So if they're with me, Richard is usually too. It does worry me though that it could be the children that get attacked.

Next topic - if I'm showing Domino on Sunday at Nettlecombe, which side do I have to run with her (I've had her on my left here), and which way round does she have to stand, that is if she decides to behave and stand at all. The lady I spoke to about the show said I could probably enter her in the sporting dog class and the novelty classes. Hope the weather is dry.

Off to collect kids from school now.
