    even catfish take dogs in europe - beware of walking your poodle; one old lady had hers on a leash when it was taken...

    Just as a matter of interest.

    I believe that quite a few dogs go missing each year from houses backing onto the canals on the Gold Coast.

    Apparantly some of the dogs like to jump into the water and swim across to other peoples yards etc. and every year a percentage of them are taken by sharks.

    Considerable research has been devoted to finding out what stimuli attract sharks and incite them to attack. Results are mostly inconclusive, but some general principles have been advanced: Certain types of irregular sounds - like those made by a swimmer in trouble or a damaged fish - seem to attract sharks from great distances. Sound, rather than sight or smell, seems to be a shark's primary cue for moving into an area. Some scientific experiments indicate that sharks can distinguish light colors from dark, and that they may even be able to distinguish colors.

    Yellow, white, and silver seem to attract sharks. Many divers maintain that clothing, fins, and tanks should be painted in dull colors to avoid shark attacks.

    i always thought you couldnt have dogs at the beach because female dogs at that particular time of their doggy menstrual cycle could be dumping blood in the water, without their owners knowing

    As a matter of interest, is everyone aware that more people are killed by dogs in Australia than sharks.
