  1. Hi all, witnessed a tall youth all in black with black Balaclava on black bike with battery pack gaffa taped on frame steal a mobile phone off a guy in Dulwich park this afternoon. The guy rode round me 3 times eyeballing as if teasing me to photograph him. He then spotted the chap take his phone out of pocket and swiped it. He was all in black, and face covered but a slim black youth.

    Hi all

    My dog used to have to take loxicom

    Every day

    So I got the vet to provide a prescription cost of £10

    Then set up account at pet drugs online

    Vets were charging £55 for a bottle 100ml

    On line with delivery I got 2 bottles for the price they was charging

    So head up get online if it's regular meds you need

    Vets are over charging they are not animal lovers

    Hi there, I too need prescription drugs but the price of the prescription has also gone up a few pounds in ND. I was recommended a small dosage tablet for my dog which would have cost £6 in total a day! I got a second opinion from another vet and they couldnt see what difference having her on one of the recommended drugs would make. So removed one and I got the larger tablet (so much cheaper) and split it!

  3. Having been the subject of a scam call yesterday after a dog I was walking ran off can I make you aware of the process scammers take. My info was posted on DOGSLOST and within 4o mins of the posting I got a call from a private id. He said 'I have your dog' but wouldn't give any address info then proceeded to seem concerned that he was taking to the dog owner so could I identify the dog... my suspicions were raised and he then said do you want the dog? I want ?500 or will kill the dog. THIS IS VERY DISTRESSING but I would say don't give them details they may not have and leave some vital info out of the description you may post so you can ask them to identify the dog. I did this and was then sure this was a hoax call.


    NOTE the man has a heavy SCOUSE accent and very threatening.


    Below is the info from Dogslost which may be helpful to read through:



    Please can I make you aware of scammers targeting owners of lost and stolen dogs for money, stating that they have your missing dog/s - most likely will be a MALE, SCOUSE ACCENT, NO CALLER ID




    They 90% do not have your dog - you can ask for a photo to be send of your dog there and then (they most likely will refuse) or ask a question only you know the answer to (e.g - distinctive mark / colour or pattern on collar) be aware they can read DogLost registrations, and know some of these answers if you?ve included it on registration.




    They can scam you in different forms, being by phone call / or a text message / WhatsApp etc.




    Report to action fraud - https://www.actionfraud.police.uk/reporting-fraud-and-cyber-crime - if the scammer passes over bank details.




    E-mail in to [email protected] so that we can log details and then get details straight over to investigating officer




    They can state they have your dog (may say found it straying) or it was involved in a accident (e.g - RTA) and want money to pay for bill etc ASAP, they can say they?ve bought your dog off someone and want to keep it and want to pay you, they can make up a story to try and trick you - DO NOT SEND ANY BANK DETAILS.




    Theses can be horrid so please be prepared.




    Please send any information, if you get a call / text to your local Police and report; get an incident/CRN if you believe your dog has been stolen and send into the DogLost admin.




    Most Importantly DON'T SEND ANY MONEY ANYWHERE.

  4. Hi, whilst going up Crystal palace road today in a car we were passed by a speeding motorbike followed by another... And the front bike had 2 riders, the pilion one wearing a cover over their face carrying a black and yellow metal bar like thing which could then have been a grinder. They had just stolen a bike and clubbed a builder on the head as he heard the noise of them outside. The roofer working by the house were the incident took place recognised the motorbike as they had cruised by earlier when they must have been casing the area. So totally agree with the comment above that confronting these guys can lead to violence as the poor guy today was assaulted.
  5. Hi all.... just in case we on the Dunstans Road support group are hoping to get the roasting trays and pots out tomorrow at noon to say happy Xmas, thankfully we are still here! I'm hoping it's a nice way to connect again as many folk are without their families and alone. Share on your streets and make your own noise to wish everyone the best!
  6. Hi all, normally I can be found out photographing and developing contemporary artworks inspired by nature and the sea. During lockdown I have turned to creating pet portraits. If you have a favourite pooch pose or a feline princess worthy of a portrait please contact me! I can work from photographs and reference material. Prices starting from ?75, I use a variety of supports and mediums. Please see examples and drop me a line if interested. mariamacc.co.uk
  7. Hi, as a local dog walker seeing and hearing of quite a few dogs coming down with the runs and vomiting, can any dog owners shed light if they have been to the vets? Will this pass quickly? Dogs energetic and eating so I have advised any I walk to keep up the fluids and go on booked rice and chicken. If any dogs are going to vomit on the rye please collect it than leave for others (if you can bag it please), or don't mix for a few days until illness over? Many thanks m
  8. 3 of us have had terrible experiences on Dunstans Road... I ended up regularly emailing their MD and after being incorrectly told I couldn't leave as under contract (not correct) they refunded me a bit and said the outage was so regular they were saying people could leave... few weeks with NowTV and seems fine as have a BT line going into the flat. My neighbour also changed to BT. At times we had days of no connection with virgin.
