I am not being heartless, I said i hope he can get his dog back.

As for you letting your dog go outside without securing your gate you were being a negligent dog owner in my opinion. You dog could have attacked the postman.

I don't think we have a big problem with strays, just people who let their dogs out on purpose to foul the streets because they are too lazy to walk their dogs and clean up after them.

Did you know in this country 1 child every week goes blind from catching toxocara from dog dirt? That was one of the interesting facts I learnt while chatting with our dog warden the other week.
