Should I just ignore it ??
I've just been chatting to a mate who has recently started a new job, he is working for a guy that lived about ten doors up from us.
He told me they got chatting about when he used to live this way, he was telling my friend about barking dogs that lived next door to him, whilst on the subject of dogs he also mentioned me and told my mate that " there was a guy just down the road that had two white Staffys and they never got walked "
Well I work nights so my first job when I get home is to walk them, this can be any time between 4:45 and 6:00 depending on overtime worked, so I would be walking them whilst he was tucked up in bed My partners job means that sometimes she doesnt get home until 10:45 and she walks them then, the field is in the opposite direction to his house so we wouldnt walk past his house whatever the time was
This has really wound me up. I know it shouldnt but it has
I was just wondering what my options were
1, nip around to his new house and see what develops lol
2, get his home number and phone him every day at 5:00 to inform him I'm walking the dogs lol
3, Just ignore it and let him carry on telling this **** to people
as options 1 & 2 would probably get my mate into trouble it looks like being option 3, unless I get any good suggestions on here
thanks for listening, rant over ( for now )

How about you worry about your own life, and leave other people to get on with theirs?
If you're really worried about the dogs, ring the RSPCA and let them deal with it.

Its far from the biggest worry in my life but that doesnt mean it didnt wind me up, now if he had said I didnt treat our lass right then that would be fine, but to say I dont walk my dogs is another thing entirely

Life is too short to worry about trivial things like this. Going round and kicking off will just add credibility his pathetic rumours.
A real mate will see through ****e like this as he/she knows how you and who you are.

Do nothing, at worst he has his low opinion of you, at best he's concerned about your dogs. It's not important what he thinks, forget about it, or, if you must, one day when you see him just mention in passing that you whilst walking your dogs at 6am you saw ............

I dont, my dad worked down t'pit and worry regarding the closures caused him to have a breakdown so I have seen first hand what worry can do, I would say if I was honest that my problem is I dont even sweat the big things
Its ended already
I have no intention of kicking off, I'm not the tallest guy you would meet so it would just look like a kid in tescos playing up because he cant have his sweets yet
I know, some people are so touchy
I drive a Scooby so I know what they think of me
