Went to park tonight with Mr Harv and this park is lovely but now tortured with underage drinkers. At the last 10 mins of going home I let Harv off the lead to have a wee run about. This is a game we play. When he runs I hide behind a tree and then pop out at him. However, there he was looking for me and walking up the pathway when 4 girls and a fella about 16 passed him and one of the girls lifted her foot and kicked him in his wee shoulder near the thyroid. She didn't realise I was behind the tree - I said "why did you do that" - "he was going to bite me" - no I saw it all I dont think so - he has never bitten in 9 years - but she shrugged it off. Park wardens have no authority over these drinkers so contact police who right enough came into the park - I approached them and they said it is a problem in most of the parks. But I said but sure when they see you they run - hopeless situation. Wee b tch! Bless him and him not well.

I did say to the police re the incident and the policewoman said could you point her out. My Gawd - don't they all look the same - long straight hair - denim shorts etc etc - no there were hundreds of young people there tonight.
Craft we were on our way home - this wee girl probably thought the dog was a stray so decided to give him a kick for good measure. They weren't all p s heads - some of the kids did apologise for her behaviour - when I spoke to the policelady - she told me a few weeks ago she brought home a 12 year old girl drunk one night and the mother started on her like a ton of bricks - saying "none of your business" etc - so it starts with the parents.
I really get upset when things like this happen - its horrid and cruel. I hope the dog is OK Connemmara. She will probably never have had a dog or looked after one and the fact that she wanted to hurt the dog I cant understand but she has a problem. You wont be the only one to have experienced this behaviour.
The only thing I can think of is if the dog walkers know eachother and get together they might do something at the park. You should be able to let the dog run around safely now and gain but maybe play it by ear for a while and see what you think. Anyone would find it hard to deal with a gang on their own - I think it can be tricky - you dont want them targeting you or hitting or kicking you.
