Loose dog at risk in traffic
26 October 2006
Yesterday I hit a dog on the way to work. I do understand that to many people that doesn't mean a lot, but to me, a dog lover, it was very distressing.
He ran in front of my car as I was in a queue of traffic in Killarney Rd. I tried to stop, but hit him anyway. The dog panicked and he ran off down the road with his owner in hot pursuit, calling his name.
With nothing else I could see to do, I drove on, shaken and with a tear in my eye. I hope that he was okay and if he is, please, owner, don't walk him without a lead again.

How about another solution, teach your dog NOT to go in the streets!

Thanks... I'm always happy to read comments. Sometimes you don't know if people are actually reading your efforts!
I don't have a chow chow but your blog says every thing you need to know. Plus it comes from an expert-- a chow chow owner (I'm assuming:) )
