No Stardust. I have been out of commission for the last month so have not been walking the dog. I will ask DH though. You should speak with these people and take a picture of her and the dog and report it. Some people have more money than brains.
Sorry to hear that, trust you are ok?
Yup, Op on foot. Still find it hard to walk to the park and back..did it once and paid the price lol.....how are all your doggies :)
The Op sounds painful! The doggies however are wonderful, love kayaking, camping, pretty much up for whatever is on offer. They have mastered opening the glass sliding doors, the baby gate and the fridge. Recently the little boy managed to open the fridge and help himself to a rack of ribs.
She sounds nuts to be honest; cackling is a pretty strange reaction to your pet turning vicious! I agree with filming the dog, try to avoid filming her as she could lodge a complaint about that.
Honestly though, one day that dog will decide that it wants to be pack leader and will go for her. And it will be all her fault...

Maybe print out the Health & Safety law on keeping dangerous dogs and the penalties she stands to incur and hand it to her.

Maybe have your phone/camera ready to video if this is something that is likely to happen again.
You were just, you know, videoing the area where you live to show family overseas and.....
Hello Stardust, are you sure the owner didn't praise the behaviour of finally stopping the agression?
For example my rescued dog is a real lunetic with other dogs as she never was socialiced correctly when she was young. If she for some reason would freak out less and would stay with me I would be tempted prais this "better" behaviour as well.
Maybe ask her why she does it, maybe it's just not knowing better?
I wish this were the case. The first time her dog attacked us she had it off the leash and was talking on her phone and at no time ended the call or intervened or even reacted to the aggression. The second time she laughed the entire time, head back laughing, then bent over and praised him/her. So absolutely no doubt in my mind that she wants and encourages this behaviour.
I have tried to speak with her but it's a no go - she is not interested.
If my dog ever showed aggression towards another person, I would most definitely ask if they were ok and apologise.
What a shame really ... I don't underatand how people can act like this. But don't have much advise how you should act either.
I wish my dog would be calmer so she could play with some fury friends.

If you see them again you really need to say something and report them. Encouraging any dog to be aggressive is dangerous and stupid. The dog needs taking away from these people.
I would go up to those ladies and show them my fangs.
Omg i sooo soo cant deal with this kind of ppl.
Im sure u can take some legal actions since id mot feel safe if i knew someone is training their dog to be a murder weapon
