I hope that the dog's sense of smell wasn't affected!

It's outrageous that something like this is allowed to happen in this country.

I want this to be addressed in the next prime ministeral debates. Let's see Nick Clegg talk himself out of this one.

Shocked and disgusted. There's nothing but bad news now days. What sort of world are we leaving for our children?

No one knows what it's like to be a dog's nose, in Ringwood, with dog walkers.

This is horrendous. What kind of society are we living in today where a dog can injure its nose just by going for a walk.

I want to see some justice! If they catch the chap responsible for this outrage he should be beaten to within an inch of his life, and castrated to stop his criminal DNA from having the chance to pass on to further generations.

This is brave and edgy reporting. It's a pity that the Pulitzer Prize is limited to the USA.

I do hope the dog is better now. A nose injury can be nasty.

If you or your dog has been affected by this problem then don't suffer in silence. You are not alone. Contact the DNTG for meetings in your local area.

The male dog walker was probably an illegal immigrant. Once again we can see the consequences of Labour's lax attitude toward immigration. How many more dogs' noses must be injured before we tighten our border controls?

Hang on a second Chris! How the hell do you get to that conclusion from a dog's injury? How is immigration even involved?

This would have happened under a Conservative government, a Liberal or even a BNP one.

I really think this fascinating article demands further investigation. What kind of dog was it? Are there any photos of the poor thing's nose?

#Nickcleggsfault?

Someone needs to send this into Russell Howard's Good News.
I know it's not particularly what you'd call "Good" news, but the reaction has been hilarious

Amidst all this talk of the poor dog's nose, I think a crucial piece of this incident has been overlooked:

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE POOR PUPPY?!?!? Has everyone forgotten him/her?

I was thinking of moving to Ringwood, but not after this. No siree Bob. It's quite obvious how much the area has degenerated after reading this. There's no way I'm putting my family OR pets at risk in a hell-hole like this. What is this country coming to? Bring back National Service I say. Wasn't like this in my day.

Jeeves Wooster says...

Do we know the reason for this assault? What are the police thinking in terms of motive? Was it racially motivated? Or perhaps it was some sort of canine love triangle?

Did the **** deserve it?

Once again we see the pernicious attempts by the North Koreans to bring disorder, distrust and canine nasal trauma to the good citizens of Salisbury. Surely,after the recent sinking of the South Korean ship in disputed international waters, this has to be another incident that is ratcheting up the tension towards potential global mayhem.

Only by demonstrating that Salisbury is a nuclear power by detonating a low-yield device under the Wilton Shopping Village can the fiendish Kim Jong-Il be diverted from causing similar olfactory carnage.

I'm a pretty liberal guy and I was obviously not planning to vote conservative.... but this really got to me, it's the embodiment of broken Britain... if only Thatcher had been with us a couple more years then this might have only been a dream and nothing more...

Look. I know this is an emotional moment for all of us, okay I know that. But let's not make snap judgments, this is an important species we're dealing with, and I don't think that you or I has the right to arbitrarily exterminate them.

While it is tempting to blame a political party, immigrants, even the EU or the North Koreans, we need only look at ourselves! The impending death of civilized society will only be stopped if we decide, right here, and right now, to stand up for the future and take back this country! Who's with me?!

All I can say is....only in Salisbury and West Hampshire would such a 'tail' a) happen b) provide such amazing feedback and c) prove that every dog has his (or her) day!!!!

I'll be doing a charity dog walk in support of this dog with the injured nose.

I aim to raise 1 million pounds to help this dog's physical and mental recovery and to assist with any legal bills.

Come on people, let's get out there and show our support for all dogs!

as a Canadian across the pond who shares the same monarch, i would just like to extend my empathy for this horrific act of violence. i blame this on that rap music and Obama. and communists. and a heliocentric view of the solar system. i hope our children get the chance to grow up in a world that doesn't contain terrible injustices such as child soldiers, ethnic and civil conflicts, and dogs...getting kicked in the **** nose

Could possibly have met up with the recently elected tory outsider for salisbury. He lives somewhere else and, I certainly smell a rat here (unlike the dog now)

I think the dog should sue it's owner for not keeping it safely on a lead...

When I moved to Salisbury in 1993 one of the frontpage headlines was "daffodils stolen from park". Someone should collect these gems.
