    So...does anyone know how you actually make money on Youtube by uploading these videos? I really would love to know! Seems the 13 year old who took the Fenton video made £500 in a very short time when it went on youtube...how???

    When I first heard this story on car radio I couldn't believe that the presenters found it so funny, you could hear the sheer panic/terror in the dog owner's voice and I sympathised with him. Yesterday I watched Hethmar's link to it and must confess that I did laugh rather a lot.
    Many of us will know that even some of the best trained dogs will be impossible to control once they are full on in a hunt chase mode. The key is to distract before they reach that stage and I guess what was really funny is that watching the clip you know full well that no amount of shouting/running after the dog is going to change a thing.
    It was fortunate that there were no casualties though.

    Something to do with this, I would imagine...

    A shame I didn't have a camera on me a moment ago. I'm sure lots of people would like to have seen Zoe angrily barking and growling at a bottle of tomato ketchup. I can't imagine what the ketchup had done to offend her...

    And I always thought Milly was the nutter...

    I just loved the Hitler spoof though. I had to look at it again just then, as it made us larf so much.

    Well, that's why I struggle to find it funny. I've watched my dog go tearing off across a field that I thought was fenced towards a flock of sheep, I've felt that heart stopping terror that you're about to lose your dog and there's not a damn thing you can do about it. Its no fun at all.
    I beg to differ..of course at the time it isn't funny... but that video was soo funny . I have had a bad day and that made my day :rotfl:
