Have been looking around for another front
seat for the landrover, and got onto this guy who said he had one.He gave me the address and told me he was out to-day but just go and have a look at it ",walk around the back of the house its on the verander." If you want it give me a ring"(trusting soul). So did that this arvo, walked down the side around the back only to be greeted by a Alsation dog that obvisouly wasn't people friendly!!.
The bugger was on a lead that took him halfway up
the block, talk about chat myself, haven't run like that since high school, only just got out of his reach as he was on onto the back of my ankles . Bloody sure ill more careful when i see a
sign beware of the dog! , and that bloke can stick his
seat!!...lol.
Cheers Axle.

I am a dog lover, but have been attacked twice by Alsations. Make that 3 times. The first one was as a kid I wasn't where I was supposed to be, and the damm lead was long enough to reach the public footpath. It ripped my foot apart. Second time was in public and I've still got the scar. Third time I wasn't hanging around as there were two of them aiming just above my kneck ! A similar situation to yours, and my wife had the drivers door open for me.
The moral is that you really do have to be careful of other people's "pets".
My dogs sound like they'll eat you as long as there's a door between you and them. When it's opened, they'll lick you to death :))

haha.....I've got one of those too.
Axle, it's not a middle
seat you're after is it? If it is, I've got one you can have for nix. In fact, I put it in for the pooch to sit on but the bugger keeps getting his snout in the road of the gear stick and he clearly doesn't like the position. I've put the "pantry" back in there now.

I was delivering phone books a few years ago in the lower Blue Mountains. The contract required the phone books to be placed at the front door. In the area there were a lot of semi-rural properties, so we drove down the drieways, up to 3 klm.
Anyway I drove down this driveway into the yard and turned across the end of the verandah, I opened the car door and took about 3 or 4 steps towrd the house when about half a dozen dogs Alsations and Kelpies came charging onto the verandah from the other end. The phone book got tossed in the general direction of the front door as I high tailed it for the safety of the car.
It must have looked good because my three mates sitting in the car were wetting themselves by the time I got the door shut.
Actually we had quite a few dog stories by the end of that day.

A bit of history on this one..... from one who has just got himself a second German Shepherd, so now have a pair of black n golds!
They are beautiful dogs but will protect property and family with their lives.
The German Shepherd and Alsation bit...... EXACT same dog.
In UK they are more often called Alsations, this was because it was after the war n people didnt like using the word German, so the Kennel Club renamed the breed the Alsation Wolf Hound, which it is still known as today but the German Shepherd has crept back in even in UK
