I envy anybody who has small dogs & feels safe walking them in the park. Whether it is Peckham Rye (my local), Dulwich etc., is irrelevant. I haven't walked my 3 yorkie crosses in the park for 3 years. Why? Because they had been set upon on numerous occasions, by larger dogs. These were mainly staffs/bull breeds, but not always. Said dogs were always off-lead & ran up to mine, who have always been on leads. My little dogs are over-friendly to all & wouldn't hurt a fly, so if a larger dog takes a dislike to one of them & attacks it, what chance do they stand? My views: There should be areas in parks where dogs should only be walked on leads. That way, I could safely take mine back there, knowing loose dogs would not be approaching. Other areas for walking dogs off-lead, so that people like myself wouldn't go there. I filled in the survey as a dog owner, but unfortunately did say yes to dog related issues in Peckham Rye Park. I also added that I think all dogs should be kept on leads while on streets/pavement walking. I always clean up after my dogs & don't have any problems with dog mess either in my road or the park, as I think most people locally are responsible dog owners. If I owned large breed dogs, I might think differently, but my priority is keeping my dogs safe.
