My friend and I were downtown, each enjoying a 5 dollar latte and 7 dollar sandwiches. Between us, on the ground under the table, was my friend’s dog, a gentle rescue greyhound, enjoying the sun. I see you and your two pit bulls, one off leash, come around the pillar. Your dog surprised and growled at my friend’s dog, right next to her ear in her “personal space”, who reacted by defending herself. Your dogs jumped on my friend’s dog, growling and bearing teeth. The table upended, and we lost two sandwiches on the ground and two lattes, spilled all over.
Do you think you should have apologized, made sure our dog was OK, or offered to pay for the 25 dollars worth of fucking lunch your dogs spilt on the ground? And then we had to buy another round of coffees and sandwiches. So out 50 bucks for lunch now.
Please control your goddamn dogs. At the very least use the leash, or next time I call the police, and we know how they feel about pit bulls jumping on other dogs, right? —Wheelie Effing P

defend your greys citizens, they’re no good for scrapping. hope your hound doesn’t hold a grudge. my grey has been attacked by off-leash dogs, i took one for the team^^
Would it really have made a difference if your lattes were only $2 and sandwhiches $5? Are we supposed to feel sorrier for you because they were more expensive? Who gives a shit how much you paid for your snack! Sorry your dog got into a scuffle. It’s always a little more intimidating when a pitbull is involvedb thanks to the media and it’s ridiculous fear-mongering hype. Any problems with pitbulls, blame over breeding and in-breeding, as well as certain idiots who know nothing about caring for a dog but think it makes a cool statement to have one. Don’t blame the breed itself. Of all the pitbulls I have met, every last one them was gentle and trustworthy. Dogs will be dogs; any breed can be aggressive.
You didn’t make the dog owner buy you lunch? Why not?
here we are once again, with off leash dog tales. when the fuck are you idiots gonna learn to leash your fucking mutts? if that would have been me o.p., i wouls have kicked the living shit out of the dogs, then the one that had them with them. there is too many of these loaded missles around, waiting for a chance to explode. if anyone tells me they have a lovable pit bull or rottie, make sure that you have plenty of fucking insurance, because, if your mutts attack or even think of going after me or mine, they are dead, and your ass is sued til the second coming of christ.
i love pitties, luckily we don’t have a breed ban here like they do in ontario. greyhounds and pits suffer much abuse, just a different kind…rooooo
Love greyhouses, the Maris of the dog world. A pit bill would use its legs for toothpicks. Now what were we saying about dogs socializing freely?
you really just sound like an entitled bitch OB…I don’t believe your story; I side with the bullies.
do some research on greyhounds cash, and don’t be dissin on wheelie
===you really just sound like an entitled bitch OB…I don’t believe your story; I side with the bullies.===
lolsx100.
Thanks for that! You’re a *delight*!
Not even my dog, dingleberry.
LIFESUCKS, you are an idiot with obvious anger management problems. Perhaps you should get your dumb redneck ass some help for that. You would kick the shit out of an animal for doing what animals do. It is irresponsible to let a pitbull off the leash in a public place. The dog owner takes the responsibility for this one. I own a pitbull and he is never off the leash in public, just in case he does take a bad reaction to someone or another dog. Although he is nice, he has the ability to do some serious damage, and that fact is always respected.
The dog owner owes you lunch OP and an apology if this is really the way things transpired.
Wheeliep, was this guy kinda short, shaved head…potentially a black jacket. Chains for the dog’s collars?
If it is, I fucking hate that dude with a passion for to many reasons for me to get into, but mainly for being one of the ones responsible for creating the pit bull stereotype.
There was one day I almost wasted a case of beer just so I could smoke him up the side of the head with it.
FAngel- it was a woman, 20s, not tall. She walks her pits in front of my place every day, and I think I remember not a leash every time on one of them, at least.
I’ve almost gotten beat up for confronting an douche in Streetsville, Onterrible, who picked fights with patrons in the house gig I played every week, then got them outside and riled up his pit-type dog to scare the crap out of the guy, who would have smoked him. He said “You’re just saying that because of you’re a cripple”. I said no, it’s because you are mishandling and abusing a beautiful dog, because you’re a COWARD. He still wouldn’t beat me up, and I was being pretty insulting.
HarperistheDevil- this is it, how it happened. I would accept a “sorry, I shouldn’t have run off”.
I love been shown over and over that “scary breeds” are sweet dogs too. It mocks my anxiety I grew up with. And I love that. I was at my Toronto video store and a bull mastiff walked over and put his head on my lap. I kissed him on the nose when I saw his tail wagging like crazy. Some dogs seem to “get” that I have a disability and go out of their way to make their sides and chins available for scritching.
How the fuck were you able to eat in a foodservice area without management/waitstaff asking you to leash your dog outside the eating area? I’ve had my mutt out with me plenty of times and everytime its a big deal for waitstaff to ask that the dog be kept outside the fence.

People act like money grows on trees, like the dog owner just has 50 dollars lying around to throw at you. I woulda picked up that sammich, dusted it off and resumed the mange position. That being said, the owner should have offered an appology, but give you a full refund on food … Eh perhaps a very generous person would but there are certain risks one takes to just … let’s say, exist. Be happy nothing more happened to your friend’s dog.
hey LTWWBers,
just wanted to let you know my time here as Mod has come to an end, but i’ll be around to play with you whenever i get the chance. Try not to be too hard on the next one, you’re an intimidating herd to corral.
with lots o’ bitch love,
Maude
good grief, i don’t like this at all. please come visit the sandbox when you can…you rawk miss maudey♡
Rawk-rawk, missie Maudie – you’ll be missed!
So who’s the new mod?
Bye-bye 🙁
Mod 5.0 male or female?
Rooooooooooooooooooo! >: (
I’m with Suckers. I’d kick someone else’s unleashed dog if it tipped over my table or attempted to attack one of my pets also. Regardless of whether or not animals do this I don’t care. If it comes to my pets’ and my own safety I’ll kick a fieldgoal with a ferret if need be.
This displeases the soul 🙁
I wish I could tell you, but as far as I know that hasn’t been decided yet. I will be around though, I’ve become quite fond of you all.
Big, big, love.

“mouse ears” pg, all the way.
===People act like money grows on trees, like the dog owner just has 50 dollars lying around to throw at you.===
I was treating a very good friend who just moved to town after a long time away.
Wasn’t looking for 50, just a gesture of responsability for her dogs jumping on the grey and knocking our food to the ground.
===I woulda picked up that sammich, dusted it off and resumed the mange position.===
Then when it happens to you, brush of the cigarette butt that ended up on my sangwich and enjoy! lols
Guess I have higher standards.
===That being said, the owner should have offered an appology,===
My point.
=== but give you a full refund on food …===
A gesture of regret for letting your dog off the leash and causing it would be nice.
===Eh perhaps a very generous person would but there are certain risks one takes to just … let’s say, exist.===
Like being responsible.
There’s nothing generous about making something right that is my fault.
===Be happy nothing more happened to your friend’s dog.===
Thank you for the good wishes! 🙂
I think getting the fucking shit scared out of her(she was shaking afterward) is punishment enough for her crime of resting on the ground and minding her own business, but yes, I am very grateful she didn’t get torn to pieces. But if the other dog had been on leash, it wouldn’t have happened in the first place.
Bye Maude! Hugs and love!
You’re like a regular Annie. Disecting every line.
A). why you sitting in cigarette butts?
B). you expect too much of humanity.
this is my dream team grrrrr
http://welovedoodles.com/wp-content/upload…
robyn, we will sincerely miss you bright and bubbly attitude around this old correll. hope you don’t stray too far, or forget us, we won’t forget you. and hopefully, the old suckster and you will get a face to face sometime. now stephen harper is a jerk. yes, i would kick the living fuck out of any mutt like that, and if you were the owner of said mutt, your ass would closely follow suit. there are canine owners, dog owners, and disrespecting fucking mutt owners. i would guess they and you fall into this same class. and speaking of classes, you sound somewhat like our mysterious asshole mm. could that be another of that things personnas? and thank you again mod.4.0, for being you, and jhaving a hand in the longest running, and most commented on bitch there at the coast. merci.
LS, enjoy your animal cruelty criminal charges.
Good riddance moderator. Worst ever.
Ciao for niao, Maudy. Don’t be a stranger:)
Maudie’s leaving sob sob. Good luck kiddo.
Why is it animal cruelty if the animal is threatening or attacking you. I’ll protect myself and others, whether it be beast or human (any sex, any age).
to me anybody with a pitbull is more than likely a fucking idiot; yes there’s exceptions
===Disecting every line.===
Again, if you want to eat it like that, have at it. I stand by my outlandish idea of not eating a sandwich that has touched a cigarette butt.
And there are butts there because people smoke in that area of the driveway, which is covered, when the restaurant is closed. They set the tables and chairs out in the morning.
If you want to find fault with or continue to boo fucking hoo about me not eating cigarette butts, go play with someone who gives a shit. I explained myself. If you choose to keep at it, I’m at a loss for what you’re trying to get me to say.
And, an update- several dog owners in my building have seen this female dog owner and her leashless pit bulls. They said the next time their dogs get jumped(and it has happened to others) they will call the cops. So, girlie, if you’re reading this, you better put Fido on his leash. He’s a loverly dog, but he has scared some older ladies in my building by coming up to them without being asked if they would like to meet your pit bulls.
I love dogs, but I prefer them being treated like dogs. If you’re trying to show us all what great pit bulls you have by letting them run free, the experiment is over. You’ve scared the shit out of several people, and the next time they are not going to keep quiet.
Another update- anyone who followed me “Love” all through last winter and spring, it didn’t work out. It was fun while it lasted, but I’m never going to wait 6-7 months for someone ever again, even if I think I want to start a life with her when she gets back.
So I’m dating again and meeting some nice women.
Go back to your regularly scheduled bitching.
🙂
I like several of you guys, and get a good feeling from what you write.
So, not a roooooooooo.
This is all scree!
WheelieP
Ok you really need to let this shit go man.
I apologize, sincerely for answering your question about brushing off the butts. I realize you were probably trying to make a statement and decided to use a question instead to try and make me look like I was unreasonable.
Which explains why you tell me to “let it go” one post after I say I’m going to let it go.
If you like, you can we can let it look like you had to cajole me into “letting go of it”, for your ego, cool?
Omg I’m about 21yrs your junior and not fucking perfect. “Real meaning” and inflection etc doesn’t translate online. Do you really think I meant eat the fallen sammich. No. Ah forget about it (I mean in terms of me, not your plight). I have no ego to stroke and do not want to fight with you.
I think I’m supposed to be insulted by you, but you’re too frigging funny!
Thanks for the laughs, Dink.
🙂
Enjoy the sound of your own whiny voice! 🙂
I didn’t see that one before I sent my reply.
>handshakes<
No problemo.
Hey, lifesucks, maybe you should read my whole post next time. Only a dumbass reads the first two lines and leaves an unintelligent threatening response. As for my asskicking to follow suit, lol, you are an ass. Your detective skills are also a little lacking as well, as I am not MM this is clearly a case of mistaken identity.
I suspect this never happened because if it had you should have called the cops to report a pitbull out of control. Think “Brindi.”
Oh! Bye, bye maude! We’ll miss you. I hope 5.0 rawks too! Scrreeeee!
And good luck wheeliep with the datin’ thang, it’s a tough go out there. 🙂
i remember wheelie’s loves. when the last one was removed i figured things had gone south. i didn’t want to say anything…discretion always
Sebastian- it happened, alright. But since my friend’s dog wasn’t physically damaged, we didn’t see reason to call the cops. Now that we know we’re one of many people that have been subject to this irresponsible dog walker, the cops will get called next time. I didn’t know it was a common experience.
Painey- things happen and people change. She was gone for too long. If we could have seen each other over the 5 month stretch, maybe coulda shoulda, I’ve moved on. But I was very heartbroken at first.
Life goes on and I’ve been dating up a storm and making up for the time I waited for her.
At first I was like, “rooooooooo”, but now I’m like “scree!” 🙂
excellent *squack* ivan, what movie is your avatar from? i think they remade it
It’s from the original 1965 “Flight of the Phoenix” (not the pissatrocious remake) Jimmy Stewart, Hardy Kruger, Richard Attenborough, Peter Finch – terrific flick. It’s an inside joke for one of our regulars but more than this I cannot say. RAWK!
Ha, Donk got served! And don’t mind sebastian, wheelie, he thinks his “one-fag-fits-all” answers are the only logical explanation for anything.
thank you admiral, i remember both of those movies now. the second one did reek^^
Attenborough’s manic laughter when he and Stewart discover that Hardy Kruger only designs “model” aircraft is a thing of beauty. Screeeeeeee!
from lunch/coffee/pitbulls to war movies. now that is a long segueway
It’s what we do best. Oh, the willy shaped wooden bottle opener is still here at the front desk. I guess whoever forgot it here, is not a bitcher or lurker.
ah yes the strange talisman…go have a drink and be well
… how did I get served? I got served by some guy on the internet in a flurry of words who didn’t get what I meant? mm hmm ok. Btw how’s your bird watching going?
it’s otay donk. fat is being a wabble wouser, i will protect you with my spear and magic helmet http://media.thestar.topscms.com/images/b6…
I looooove your new powers with the link/pics painey. Amuses me greatly. Ivan, I’m going to to have to check ou your phallic bottle opener when I come visit soon. Hope you had an enjoyable Saturday and are now enjoying a lovely cold redstripe. Perfect for a gorgeous day like today…
Red Stripe time ain’t for another 2 hrs, Ralmn. The wife’s away so the cat will play. Unfortunately what that means, in reality, is that I’m going home to an attention deprived furry little diva who’s been asleep all day and will be more than psyched for her favorite game of “Pat me while I move just out of arm’s reach”
Kill de Wabbit, Kill de Wabbit….
*chuckles at Ivan and points*
Heh. “Magic Helmet.”
Oh, that makes for a long day. Enjoy the countess. I miss my d-man on the weekends I’m in NB. You think yours will be a diva?? Mine’s been lonesome for 3 days now… tomorrow will be wicked. Planning on getting home early just for some special cuddles with my furball. &hearts
LOL – What’s Opera Doc – >: ) G’Night Kittehs Purrrr, Purrrrrrr.
Lol thanks PG. My eyeshadow looks fabulous and your shirt armour is right on trend for this season! 😉
Donk you got served. Now just drop it or whatever it was or let it go or something.
Pfft. Spear and magic helmet *chuckle*
i love bugs, he did drag so well

‘Ohhhh Bwunhilda, you’re so wove-wee’… ‘Yes I know it… I can’t help it…’ All hail Termite Terrace!!!!
Oh god. Kicking an animal. I had to do once, several times to the same dog. It killed me, but we had no choice because this savage ( most likely abused) stray became hell bent on killing my dog. When she first approached and became agressive, we crossed the street. Then i tried to coax her away, then i did a lunge at her to try and scare her off. She was so quiet the whole time; it was so strange as all she seemed to see was my dog’s neck- which she continuously lunged at. At some point, Mcdonalds restaurant allowed us inside to wait for her to leave, but she wouldn’t. We bought her a burger to try and distract her (she also looked starving)- but when we left she resumed and so my boyfriend threw his big travel guide at her, which she didn’t even notice. We tried everything. Everytime she went for my dog’s throat, my husband& I would try to block her, and at one point she bit my leg, tearing my pants and drawing blood. My own dog was a huge one, scary to look at but a benign softie, so he didn’t fight back, which meant there was nothing left to do but kick her. We both did, yet she didn’t even register. Evetually people coaxed us into the cinema and we called police, as did several witnesses, but they never showed. They also told us animal control was closed on sunday. That dog stalked us for about 30 minutes. It was the scariest experience of my life and my dog required stitches in 3 places around his neck. But i can still feel what it felt like to kick her & hope i never have to do something like that again.
Z- I can’t kick(wheelchair etc) but I’ve actually busted up 2 swarmings from my chair, by getting physical. I think if my pooch was being mauled and I saw blood, I might use a stick on the snout or noggin to convince the attacker it’s a bad choice. I know I would feel bad, but saving something I love would be some comfort, though I hope I never have to find out.
The owner of these pits(a breed of dog I love) has allowed her off leash dogs to do this to several other tenants’ dogs. Never real damage, *yet*, but it’s still bullshit to let your dog, who you know acts the fool, off leash to repeat this, again and again.
To the owner- if you read this, don’t think you need to come up to me and tell me off. I love dogs. I’ve met yours and they are generally sweet. They’re jerks to other dogs though, and people fear the breed. I want you to keep them, so leash them before someone calls the police. It would be a dumb way to get your durgs killed.
Wheeliep, busting up 2 swarmings from your chair- putting yourself at risk like that to help someone….this isnt a come-on but yourself are the kind of person i love. I feel a bit to old to be saying ‘awsome’ but you ARE awsome.
I love the SAW movies etc, but the real thing makes me feel sick to my stomach.
I’ve never really told anyone about these events, but if there’s a way for us to message, maybe it’s time I told someone.
As for being too old to say awesome, I just turned 42 last week, and I say awesome every day.
Thanks for the appreciative non-come on. (insert Suckster offering to come on etc)
I stopped reading after $5 lattes. No sympathy from Veeny for your elitist ass.
Not asking for it. Now please go eff off.
==I stopped reading after==
Yet you had to drop in after all this time to show us what we’ve been missing, right?
Get over yourself, douchenozzle.
And policing every response within seconds of posting. Elitist and vain! It may also be time to learn some terms that didn’t fall out of popularity in the 90’s. A triple threat of douchedom? lol
Elitist and vain is referring to oneself in the third person.
>ahem<
