It is actually a good idea.  We tend to judge people on how they look, it is not a conscious thing but the dogs will pick up on it.

I have nothing against tattoos but I agree that tatooing faces and necks is, to me, not very nice.

 

When I worked for the probation service I had a client with eff off in inch high letters tatooed across his forehead,  with a multitude of piercings and other tats. Who's going to give him a job?

The Arts Council, Melv.

Completely radio.

yes - it needles me!

(sorry Doug)

TTT - You appear vexed on two fronts - firstly, people who choose to decorate themselves in a manner you disapprove of. That's their personal choice and right in a free society.

Secondly, if by 'these people', you mean the dog trainers, that is explained in your link.

If you meant that tattooed people, I refer you to the first part of this answer.

-- answer removed --

You can see by the look in the eyes of the fella with the face tatts that he really likes that pup.

But one does have to wonder what drives people to have such extreme markings, for one it pretty much renders you unemployable and 2, unless you are built like the proverbial brick out house every time you went to the bog someone wold be likely to follow you in and punch you in the face.

 

My labbie read all that and wasn't much impressed. He yawned,broke wind and fell asleep

You sure that want me?

Why does that photo remind me of Moby Dick?

Boris should be ideal, that hair would scare anyone and anything.🤣

never understood having a tongue stud, nose lip rings, i have fillings in my teeth, but a tongue stud...whats that all about, is it some kind of s/m fetish.

Poor old mans best friend. Why confuse them  with barking owners.

They need bearded and mustachioed folk ?

 

They need more varied staff members. Get the female staff to stop shaving every morning.

To be serious for a sec, I see excessive tattooing or piercing as a form of self harm. I feel sorry for them.

Perhaps the guide dogs leading the people with tattooed faces and necks can be fitted with a neon display advertising that they are attached to a nutjob. 
The dogs wouldn't mind, the freaks would be unaware, and the general public would aporeciate the warning. 😀

What about having your eye balls tattooed ?

No thanks.
