Do you live near Forest Hill Road and have your dog walked?

I think Angela Norton employs or employed a man of that description.

[fleur]

Saw this man also and have seen him around locally but not with the dogs. I noticed he was walking very fast past me and the smaller black and white dog you mentioned pulling behind, caught my eye too.Makes me feel quite sad now.

[ivor]

Did you notice whether there were two collie dogs in the group of four or just one?

[Tafftot]

I think I know the guy you're talking about - I see a guy with that description in Peckham park all the time walking a various amount of dogs, usually he walks with a couple on leads and a couple off leads. And I've spoken to him a couple of months back and a few of the dogs he walks I remember him saying were for other people.

If it's any help when I've seen him in the park he seems really nice, cheerful and good with the dogs - I've never seen him angry or cruel with them. However, the guy I'm talking about might not be the guy you saw, or if it is the same guy, maybe, as you've suggested he might have been having a bad day. I hope that the case, for the dogs sake.

There could be some confusion over professional dog walkers.

Simon from 'Bow wow meo' could easily fit that description.

They tend to ferry the dogs around in an old converted cabs though.

[dimples]

now this is out of order , I know simon from bow wow meo and he looks nothing like this discription and absolutly loves walking the dogs.plus he doesnt walk any of his dogs anywhere near forest hill road or peckham park so please do be careful what you say !

[fleur]

The guy was a little stocky,hair pulled back,in a hurry and coming down Forest Hill Road with the dogs,not in a car.I have seen him on his bike before.Did not appear at all professional.

That is my point Dimples.

He's does walk his dogs in Peckham though, or at least used too.

Hi Ivor,

I *think* there were two collies and a boxer, and I'm afraid I just didn't clock what the fourth dog was, he was so angry and I was trying to keep my own dog out of the way. I was just taken by how afraid the one collie appeared - I watched him after he passed me and she was really trailing behind with her tail tucked in.

(I'm assuming that she was a she, but didn't see the anatomical details, I just thought she was pretty!)

Bow Mow Miaow does not use Peckham Rye Park.

[Pearson]

They used too.

[cate]

When did they use Peckham Rye Park? And why does Dimples not agree with your description of Simon? You really should be more careful.

[Pearson]

What you want dates?? they used to use Peckham Rye.. what more do you want?

And before you ask, i know Simon too and i would often see him there with his

cab parked next to the cafe.

As regards description, if you read my first post i was actually saying he could fit that description. And yes people 'should be careful' and not get confused.

And just to be extra safe. I like Simon and he is a good guy!

OK?

In that case it can't be the guy that I see - the guy I'm talking about walked several dogs (i.e. other peoples dogs) in Peckham Park, albeit quite a while ago - and I'm sure I've seen him since walking his own. As I said, when I've seen him he's always been lovely. I haven't seen him for a while, but then I have been going to the park a different time usually anyway to the dog walkers.

I tend not to write on these forums because they seem to degenerate very quickly into slanging matches or people talking offence. For the record I don't think people on here were trying to do that by identifying the guy the first poster saw.

I have a dog myself and so feel for dog owners pushed to the brink by naughty dogs (my own can be exceptionally annoying at times - a work in progress I like to call her) however, I think its important if people witness cruelty - especially if the person is a dog walker and its right to try and work out who it is.

[ljs]

Definitely not Simon.... he walks our dogs for us and he goes to Crystal Palace now for most of his dog walking. Simon has very dark curly hair. He also doesn't use a black cab, he uses a silver car now.

If you like Simon, then why would you say he could fit that description?

[dorisminor]

Yes she does. He came to walk my dog when I was with her company and she neglected to tell me who he was or that he would be entering my house instead of my usual walker. I didn't know who he was and wasn't happy about the situation so I left.I now have two very reliable dogwalkers including the Dulwich Dogman.

[cate]

Doris minor, What do you mean, yes she does? Who does what?

[Pearson]

Cate,

"There could be some confusion over professional dog walkers.

Simon from 'Bow wow meo' could easily fit that description.

They tend to ferry the dogs around in an old converted cabs though.

I said he 'could', not he 'did'!

To point out that there 'could be some confusion if people were not careful'.

Maybe if i lacked clarity in the first post, i think i have made myself clear now?

[cate]

I do know what they ferry dogs around in - I have used them before. Gray hair in a pony tail is what the description said above. Is that how you see Simon?

[Pearson]

Give it a rest Cate.

Yes it is how i remember Simon from a few years ago!

[dorisminor]

Sorry haven't got the hang of this yet! The guy is, or at least was, employed by Angela.

[cate]

Yes, Doris, Angela employs someone answering that description is what I said when it was first mentioned on here, but Pearson has said it could be someone working for Lisa from Bowwowmiaow. I thought you meant Lisa, Doris.

According to ljs he doesn't look anything like the description. Perhaps the guy employed by Angela used to work for Lisa if you are talking about a few years ago.
