If a dog can't be controlled it shoud be stopped from having unfettered public access.

More concerned about bloody dogs chasing me as a cyclist. Total pain.

When our French neighbour saw me starting to split some logs last year he came round and offered me the use of his splitter. It was a right beast, very heavy, which took some manouvering to get it from his house to ours.  It was a Woodline WL8 with and electric motor. I believe it generates a force of 8 tons. Absolutely brilliant and made easy work of the job.
