Many years ago my brother and I were flying our kites at the local park. We took our dog to give it a run.
Along came old mate greyhound trainer with about half a dozen dogs.
We called our dog to come back to us but he looked at us and said "no way.. this will be fun".
So our dog started running around old mate and very soon he toppled over and was being pulled along through the muddy grass by his team of dogs..
Almost like bare foot water skiing.. was as funny as to look at it...
Anyway, he finally gets up and goes away.
About 20' later he's back and wants our name and address.
He comes to the house saying that he's going to sue us for loss of winnings at Olympic Park on Saturday night as a couple of his hounds were injured.
So Dad then goes to the Police and they question us about how many dogs did he actually have..
Turns out there is a strict limit. And he was over..
So next thing we know is that he is back on our doorstep again offering us the opportunity to be his guests at the track....
Seems like he had a further think as to what his position was.
So the thread line of dogs and being sued wasn't that far fetched at all...
