Back-pedalling??
No matter what you type now,your original post shows what an arsehole you are..
2 minutes of kindness could have made all the difference,did you not think for 1 minute that the poor thing was looking for someone who may look after it,im sure it wasnt looking to be treated cruelly,nor did it deserve it.

You have no idea, just an excuse to bite.
The dog was fine; after deciding to move on, it skipped down the hill to the next van. If it was hurt, it didn't show signs and it was an total accident it if was. I checked if it was okay (not expecting a 1 ft shove away to hurt a dog). I then moved it further away very gently.
Anyway I don't know why I bother with trolls like you; I've given you the benefit too but your true colours are hard to hide. Good riddance to you and your pious mates.

I've never hidden any colours Matt.
You're either backtracking because you realise what you did was unacceptable or your original post was bullsh!t.
Is this what really happened?
Some lovely dogs here!
My lab is lovely but I'm feelng a bit of dog insecurity seeing all these trophy type dogs on here so I'll embellish this story.
A cute wee terrier decided to visit our van a couple of times from the van next door when we were on a hook up (can't be missing Corrie now) at the local caravan park in Penzance. Wait, I'll say we were free camping in Galicia because that makes me seem far more impressive. I tried once to get it to leave us alone becasue it was interrupting the scrabble - hang on, that won't wash on Scoobynet - I know! I'll say this: many attempts at trying to get rid of it (it was actually quite cute) failed and it kept hiding under our van.
I pushed it away about a foot. Aw ****, that's not nearly "ninja" enough. Emm...ah..yeah, I'll go with this: I dragged it out and flung it down the road; must have landed badly because the poor thing really yelped but STILL came back! Yeah, that's way more "hard man" don't mess with me dog.
I picked it up (because obviously it didn't have fleas but I'll say it did) and took it back to next doors van. Bugger, no, I'm super fit so: I deposited it about 500 yards away. Message finally received.
I still feel really insecure...hmmm..no, lets go with: "bad" ...

What's not working for you is going on the defensive and having a go at the rest of us, and me in particular. You know what happened the last time.

Oh yes, your "threat" of stalking me again; very noble of you.
I've written the post badly, the dog was fine; we were tolerant of it for about 20 minutes. I'm not back pedalling; I just came across wrongly; can we just leave it at that? However I do look forward to hearing tales of you all helping hundreds of stray dogs; I'm sure they'll be heart warming.
Right, time to continue our month's holiday; I'll stay off this forum in case I get the SN hordes judging me on that too.

In fact, when did I ever "stalk" you. For fun a while back I thought I'd see if I could find you on the web. Took about 3 minutes. Its called being curious Matt. Its not stalking so get over yourself 
I was referring to you losing the plot, threatening physical violence and then taking a voluntary sabatical from Scoobynet
Enjoy the rest of your holiday Matt

I think you could have worded it a bit better in your first post Matt, I too thought you were a bit of a prat tbh. You can see there are a few animal lovers on here, so i think you got the necessary flack..
Im in the market for an English Bull Terrier, would love a cane corso/boerboel, however i don't have the space to give it a good enough life.

Yer right......your full of sh1te, you realised that we are justified in our backlash to your original shocking post and are now trying to squirm out of it.
In my eyes you are a sad excuse for a human, I hope one day you don't find yourself in a situation similar to that dog.

Well a little wee update.
I'm still slowly looking for a dog without rushing, but we just had a phone call off a family member stating that somebody has a puppy that the want rid as they can't cope (without going in much detail) basically it's a tiny dog that I didn't want!
Wife's bloody loves it of course (who wouldn't love a small dog)
Well it's a pug cross jack Russell and we can have it for free, its 9 week old and the wife has blagged me and I've caved in
( I so wanted a normal or bigger sized dog ��)
We are picking it up tmr.
There goes my status dog!

The picture below is taken after me vacuuming in the afternoon, going out for the night and when I got back in the morning I was about to vacuum and I took this picture to show my girlfriend what I mean.

One important thing to remember now your getting a small dog...treat it like a big dog, not as a little baby. It'll be better for it.
This especially applies to your missus. Small dog syndrome can be avoided, and you'll have a cracking dog that eat less and poops less too.
I wasn't into little dogs and considered them as annoying, yapping, nippy, vicious things..... until I ended up with one, and wouldn't be without him now . He still has a annoying bark though....but he knows what "shut up" means..
Re: Moulting....first thing to look at is diet. Lots of pet food these days, even the expensive stuff like Royal Canin has stuff that shouldn't be in a dog's diet....Grain by-products, like corn and wheat will be a sure thing to give a dog skin problems if its intolerant to it...and if it has skin problems it'll moult....ALOT!

I've been through the different foods. Was recommended a good by a company which I was told was the same as James well beloved (or whatever it's called) She is a sensitive little thing as far as her skin goes. I originally fed her regular stuff and she used to itch and scratch all the time, her tummy was red and she'd bite at the base of her tail until she'd started to bald it. Since changing her diet she doesn't do that but she still moults a lot. But everyone tells me Jack Russell's moult a lot. She's a short hair but has a ruff of long hair and a streak down her back.

My wire haired Parsons Jack Russell doesn't malt much which I put down to all the chicken and chicken stock she gets, I buy a whole chicken remove the breasts, legs and wings for me and boil the carcass in about 3 litres of water for a couple of hours then freeze it in cubes and separate the bones from the meat and put it in freezer bags, 4 cubes a day along with a bit of the meat mixed in with left overs and cheap dry food, all soaked together with water for a few hours before feeding, do this with all my dogs and they all have nice shiny coats and only malt a couple of times a year.
Oh and plenty of meaty bones from the butcher.
