Please be careful walking through Dawson Heights near Donkey Alley. There is a dog there. Could be staffy. It just went for me. My son is calling the police 

 

Update. Son has moved dog to Dunstan's Rd and police are on their way.

Further update. Police now on scene. Dog went for them so they're calling in a special dog unit. My son suspects that this poor dog has been badly treated because it had marks on It's face. Also, it was exercising its jaws on a swing rope when my son found it so clearly trained to be aggressive .Not an expert on dog breads but it did have a big head. Might be a banned breed.

Poor thing. We were just about to go up there - I would have done sooner if I'd seen your message in time.

I'd have called the vet.

It MIGHT be a banned breed - however, ANY dog is likely to be very frightened if he's been abandoned - don't assume that it's a dangerous dog.

Staffy's are NOT dangerous.

Just been up and taken the dog water and food - he's much calmer now.

Such a beauty. Looks more like a boxer from a distance.

Some people are just awful - I can't imagine every abandoning a dog. 

The police there are very nice too, so hopefully it will all end well.

Perhaps this thread could be used as a cautionary tale not to jump to conclusions....

'Abandoned dangerous dog, bred to be aggressive, badly treated, and potentially a banned breed' turns out to be  'lost dog, with an owner looking for it, which is just (understandably) scared'.

It is easy to jump to conclusions….. we are all humans.  I’m not offended. I’m happy police was called, I would be in too many pieces knowing Milo was stolen and used for  breading. 
Milo and I are having worst few days since this year started.  Thank you all once again.  Milo lives in Havant with me, he was staying with friends for the week in Dulwich.  Not everyone is responsible with dogs.

Unfortunately with bull breeds people are very judgemental, glad you’ve got him back nice and safe 🙂. You could tell he’s well looked after and in great shape.

    • 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.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
