Oh I can’t type that!!!
Surfermom you are a saint !
My blood pressure has risen just reading the tail er tale .
I would probably have filled the air with terrible language telling him exactly what I thought of the old fart .
What an infernal cheek!
Can you imagine being married to such an AH ?
No wonder she smiled weakly she probably has years of such incidents to put up with .
Now I wonder if the jerk would have behaved the same had you been a 6ft 4”” 25 year old Rugby type doing a bit of running ?
I am going through a spell of being severely ‘puppy broody’ at the moment so may well have put the lead on the dog and walked off with it :shock: 
When you got home, you knocked the jar of chicken feed into the freezer and had to vacuum it out.
Now we will never know what you would have said.
Yes! How did you know!
Actually…
I said, just loud enough for his wife to hear, "You can try to train your dog, and you can even try to train your wife…
But you, sir, cannot not train me."
And with a smile and wave to his wife, I was off.
I feel a little bad for that rudeness, but not very much.

I still would have taken the dog. Might even have offered to train it for them.
I thought that really loudly, Rhian - but you know how it is…biting that teacher’s tongue .
From what I saw, Mr. Grump could have definitely used your help. Sweet, lovable but bonkers puppy!
I don’t consider that to be rude surfermom. You did well.
Thank you, LD. However, it was the tone I used…the TONE.
It looks like more than the puppy that needs training Surfermom.
Some friends of mine down at the running club were out on their Sunday morning run. As they were about to cross a road junction, a car sped up and cut them off, the driver grinning through an open window. One of the lads quickly grabbed the car keys through the open window and threw them as far as he could into some undergrowth…Now that’s what I call justice!..
You should have run off with the dog, who obviously preferred your company to theirs…
But I am a 6’4" 25 y.o. rugby type!
Only I’m 5’ 4".
And I have never played rugby.
And I’m nearly 60.
Never mind .
Your point is well taken about the wife, which is why I gave her a little food for thought. I feel sorry for her and the dog.
I have noticed most labradoodles/cockerpoos etc are nuts & too many of them don’t get proper training. They are cute though. We have a poodle cross next door, think he’s a Cavapoo, he is nuts too & friends have a Cockerpoo that steals cuddly toys. The owner had to pay for it, as it was rather wet.
I’m still looking for them and I’m bl**dy livid. :twisted:
Ah yes, I know the TONE. 
Welcome to Yorkshire Longdogs…:-D:-D:-D
Too right we do Longdogs, it’s a very familiar tone emanating from Mrs Fox…:-(:-(
He’s just lucky he didn’t get the TONE in combination with
the LOOK.
A subtle blend of sarcasm mixed with pure evil. :shock:
I’m scared! :shock:
