I suspect that this chap is not unknown to the authorities.

Neither in control of his dog nor his car! If he could reach the brake pedal, he says he could, then he could have slowed down or stopped.
|
Or switched the ignition off......oh, there's the handbrake as well, or was that stuck up the dog's chuff ?
|
It's one of those excuses that even if true incriminates him, not that I believe it. And my first thought too was that he probably has previous in the realm of motoring offences.

If it had been my lab, and it was tea time, and we were away from the food bowl that story would have carried a lot of credence.

Knowing labs, it probably would have started eating the car not driving it!

That sounds to me a bit like a Staffiebullownerist sort of comment, ON, you'll have Brompto after you! ;-)

Several tons of dogs are transported into Hanoi every day to be chopped up and eaten, I learned from a thing on the box earlier tonight. Cages stuffed with poor sad pooches.
The girl fronting the piece seemed shocked that Vietnamese families would keep a dog as a pet and then eat it. Actually people here do the same, making a pet of a lamb or calf or chicken and later eating it.
I'm not really a sentimentalist but I like dogs, and the sight of those sad-eyed mongrels crowded in their cages made me feel a bit British. Soppy of me I know.

It is hard for most of us to think about eating a dog.
However, logically, there is no reason why, if you can eat a sheep, a cow, a chicken, a sea creature, why not a horse, and then why not a dog?

A colleague ate dog with some Korean associates while in Seoul on business recently. Reckoned the meat was stringy, fatty and generally rather underwhelming.

You mean it wasn't the dog's b*****?

Our Collie-X as well. And at 13 he would be tough as hell :-)
It's dying out in Korea, to be fair, and already a minority thing. Dog meat is said to increase stamina, which is of course complete ballcocks, and dogs are gaining popularity in Korea as companionship animals.

>> and then why not a dog?

Or deceased relatives?
