So we have been in negotiation with the place we are renting a cottage off for the last few weeks, trying to get a 3rd dog.

Upon finally agreeing, over many emails and messages the owner pops up with......

Obviously all dogs will be confined to the boot room and tiled kitchen at all times.

Are you serious, so it's not dog friendly, it's a place to pop a dog in a crate for a week essentially. No mention in T+Cs, no mention by Cottages and Castles who are the shower of turds we've sadly had to go through since booking in March, and no mention in any literature or correspondence at all. Simply not upstairs and not on furniture.

So, sleeps 10, in Scotland, dog friendly for a week over Christmas, that should be easy to find

If we don't get a full refund quickly i'll break in and shit on every carpet till they do.

Merry funking Christmas

Dave!

I nearly got killed on the bike by a truck today.

Today can get fucked.

I remember thinking that place looked great when you booked.....

I am sure it will have a hoover..... so - if you let the dogs in the living room.... who’s gonna know?

Is there any chance that you might be just over-reacting a tiny, weeny bit here Dave?. Seems pretty standard to me.

So you keep your dog confined to the kitchen?

Every dog friendly place we have stayed has asked for the dog to be confined only when we are not in the house. I’m not leaving the dog in a separate room for a week, it’s not fair on the dog.

Dave!

They're not cuddly toys you know Dave

In all seriousness, who gives a fuck what they say?. As long as they're not monitoring the place in any way, which really would piss me off, and you put a blanket down for Flash, how the hell would they know?.

No matter what the terms say, my dogs go where's best for me & them and should the worst happen then I'll pay for any damage. To me, a dog friendly rental is one that doesn't have white carpets.

I’d just take the dogs anyway, unless they’re prone to explosively shitting everywhere they won’t find out. And if they do find hairs just says it’s your pubes. You’re a big hairy guy etc

This is yet another reason why dogs are the worst

I’m tempted to put clothes on him and pass him off as an ugly child.

Dave!

Your thinking of German hotdogs again...

This company is local to me, I know plenty of folks have rented happily through them, might be worth a look if you get your refund.

Flash over the Xmas period

B)

Logic has pushed apart the firmly closed doors of silliness and the initial rules we booked the place under have been put back !!

I now fully expect Flash to randomly decide to eat the sofa.

Dave!

Just tell them that you did it yourself whilst under the influence of Ketamine.

You could even claim that Flash would usually have stopped you from doing it.

But he was locked in the kitchen
