Aussies divided over wild footage of dog owners clashing outside a park – so who is to blame?

Aussies have been left divided over who is to blame after wild footage captured dog owners clashing over an unleashed pet with one of them threatening to call police.

Video showed a woman standing near the entrace of the park and telling a man with an unleashed dog outside of the area to put his pet on a leash so she could leave.

‘Can you hurry up and get your dog so then we can go? You're blocking us from leaving,' she yelled at him.

His manic dog continued skitting back and forth between them.

‘Stop talking, stop talking,' the man said in response. ‘He's not an attack dog.'

‘Mine is,' the woman said, as the man's dog continued to run around them.

‘Get your dog so we can leave. We can't leave because your dog's there.'

‘And what's mine going to do?' the man asked.

‘My dog will grab your dog. Can you get your dog?' she shoutd at him.

‘So yours is the problem,' he responded, still refusing to leash his dog.

Then the confrontation escalated with the woman telling her partner to call the police.

‘I'm calling the f***ing cops p****. F*** off or I'll call the cops right now,' her partner yelled off-screen.

‘You're literally blocking us from leaving, yeah, I can't grab (the dog) until he's gone,' she said.

The man then slowly trundled away with his dog still unleashed.

Social media users were left divided with many defending the woman.

‘Irresponsible dog owner. She's got every right to complain,' one person wrote.

‘She's absolutely right here. He's being an irresponsible tool. Seen too many dogs on leashes lash out at off leash dogs with no respect for boundaries,' wrote another.

‘That dog is totally out of control, and my dog would bite it if it came near him like that,' a third wrote.

‘I would just tell the guy that I'm leashing my dog and coming out with him, but if his dog approaches mine its not on me when my dog bites his.'

But not everyone was on her side with many saying her dog was the problem.

‘Has anybody else noticed that Karens have become an invasive species in Australia?' one asked.

‘That man did nothing of the sort, you two are overreacting,' another wrote.

One man sarcastically wrote: ‘My dog will attack your dog so I'll call the police if you don't leave'.'
