Dogging
30 Answers
This subject was mentioned in another post and it has prompted me to tell you this story.
Once when I was in hospital I was chatting to a male nurse I know quite well. I noticed he had scratches all over his arms and I asked him how he had come by them. He told me he had been out jogging and had run through some shrubbery and been scratched by thorns. I jokingly shook my head in disbelief and accused him of being in the bushes because he had been dogging. The ward sister, who is Indian and doesn't always understand slang, was nearby. After the male nurse had gone, she approached me and said that she had not heard of dogging before and could I explain to her what it meant.
I said the first thing that came into my head, that if you are dogging you are out for a run and have your dog with you. I explained that the word came from a combination of 'jogging' and 'dog walking.'
That conversation took place over 2 years ago and I still have nightmares that the poor woman will end up being punched on the nose for innocently telling someone....who is probably a consultant.....probably in front of his wife..... that she had seen him out dogging.
