Hello, I was terrified by your bad experience in the park. You were lucky to not beeing hurted by these dog!!! I often go to the park with my baby, when the weather is good and i'm not feeling good when these typeof dog ran alone near to my purchair... I fear also for my dog ...he's again in France and will arrive only in November (because of the English Law of protection desease) We arrived in August in Dulwich and we came from France. We're very surprised by the number of pit bull or american Staff in England... it seem to depend on area, and i find there no so many pit bull in dulwich. In France , these type of dog and some others are strictly controled .The governement forbidden their birth in order to stop the progress on their number,.It's beccause we had some terrible attaks on children during these last 3 years(who were killed by pit bull, Bauceron or Rotweiler). Owner of these dogs have to be registred by the Police and owners are obliged to keep attached their dog in public and muzzled (people call easy the police when they observe that the owner not respected the rules). If they don't do that, after several penalities, the dog can be placed on a center or unfortunatly killed by a vet. We love animals (we have a cat, a dog Golden retriever) and i find the English dog very well educate in public rather in my country. It's just unbelievable that "fight type dogs" are not obliged to be muzzled ... All dogs not have to be placed in the same basket than these dangerous exeptions...if you love animals, you love peole according to me. The police don't often come to see if law was respected and if families were in safety in the park? After that i'll be not quiet at the park... Sorry for my English, i'm not fluent again!!
