barking dogs
 
what is it with the french and their dogs, we have had a new build 1/4 of a mile from us and their dogs barking day and night, its the same thing in the village, dogs barking as one walks past, dogs barking for know reason for hour on hour. Do the french have odd hearing that cuts out barking???
It travels be round the bend.

The country French are mainly 'peasants' and dont bother about barking dogs.

Why do people expect France to be like Britain.

I don,t expect France to be like Britain, I just ask the question why do they always have barking dogs, Please please don,t be a fool mate. And if thats all you can come up with please keep it to yourself.

I am not being a fool, most French country people are not sophisticated and have been brought up with barking dogs on the farm etc and it does not bother them, as they have always lived with it.

If I give you an honest opinion try to be a little less ignorant about it.

I am not ignorant, but coming from someone who starts out with rubbish like why do people IE ME, expect france to be like the uk is just ignorant, you don,t know me and just made a wild statement about me, how ignorant is that, anyway I don,t wish to fill my mail box up with this so lets just end it here, OK.

I would just say to end it that I lived in France for over 2 years and that most Brits move there and do not realise how different France is to England. That was the point I was making. Good luck to you.
