I think e-dealer that perhaps abuse was resorted to out of sheer amazement at you taking pics of a "no dogs" sign and a lab trotting about, seemingly doing no harm whatsoever.


I entirely agree that dogs should not be allowed to damage that area in any way; the planting is really beautiful and well done, and so it makes sense to have the sign there. But lets not go overboard - the dogs weren't harming any of the displays were they?


Also, the chap that you pulled up for having his dog on his lead, am I right in thinking that he was walking his dog, on a very dog-friendly, dog-centric day, on a path, next to a flowerbed with a no dogs sign, and you thought it necessary to give him a lecture?

No ON a flower bed with a no dog sign. Pictures supplied as some doubted the sign existed. And I didn't lecture anyone. Just pointed out that there was a sign saying no dogs. And he left the bed so all in all a happy encounter with a dog owner.
I am a dog owner and regularly walk my dog in peckham rye park. There are areas that simply say dogs must remain on a lead. The oval garden refered to hear is out of bounds for humans as well otherwise thare would not be a fence. Some people have no respect, its that simple. Dogs can't read and its owners resposibility to manage their own dog.

I was there too on Sat opp. the garden and the group with my dogs letting them into the pond to get cool. Them having been pulled away from sausages/floating dalmations/getting told off for knocking over beer/not winning prizes/in and out of dog-ring in 25 degree heat and not allowed to eat their and others' goodies.


Aforementioned group had a really over-friendly dog who kept knicking our ball, and humping my little dog. But hey! They're dogs. When the sun is out, let play commence!! No-one was hurt. After a while, 2 more black labs came to join in. Loads of fun and laughter. Not sure when anti-dog 'investigative' photographer turned up. Thankfully, we'd gone.

So there we have it. Just proves that some dog owners are in that elite group who think that rules and laws dont apply to them.Just to everyone else. Like Looting Rioters, Speeding Offenders and Drink Drivers. I guess we have to get used to the elite!

Looting Rioters, Speeding Offenders and Drink Drivers injure people and can cause death...Joey the Jack Russell running about and trampling on the dandelions does not..

Er I think some Dogs do cause death. Like Rioters and Drinkers and Speeders they often don't cause death. But thats not why the the Rules / Lawa are there. A lot of Money was spent on tidying up the Park and we should just respect the parts that are 'protected' by signs

Ok what about people who illegally park , Pee in the Street, Blow their horns at 4 am. All antisocial all breaking rules and NOT killing anyone. Not paying fares on trains no TV license? are they ok 'just having a bit of fun'? exempt' Which rules/ laws is it ok to break? I'd just like the Dog owners who think it IS ok to break laws to tell me which ones it is ok to break.

I used to Like to Smoke with my Pint in the Pub - Can I do that? (Should I restart smoking!)

Id like to say Funnily enough - but I wont its not fully just found this - Dogs DO attack kids in Parks

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1263932/Girl-4-attacked-police-dog-plays-park.html

But I don't believe in banning dogs. But I'd like dog owners to show some respect for the park and other people by sticking to the rules - its not that hard is it?

Maybe the Dog License should be brought back so there was some sort of sanction of anti social dog owners.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
