This really is the limit!

I wasn't present but I've just been speaking to a friend of mine who yesterday in Downham witnessed something sick. he was walking his dog who's a fully grown male German shepherd in Forster park in Downham when a group of lttle shits set their Staff/Bulldog/extention of their dick on his dog Jess. His two sons Bill and Louis were present and thankfully Jess killed his opponent. When the police arrived they were naturally suspicious that an organised dog fight had been arranged but after talking to witnesses it had become apparent that something sinister but becomeing more common had happened. Basically, for a laugh these 'people' take a dangerous dog to the park and find a more or less equal opponent. Place bets on which dog is most likely to win or how long their dog will take to kill it's innocent opponents and if theirs looses just walk off! They film the footage on mobile phones and post the footage on underground internet sites for others to 'enjoy'.

Beware.

And this is why Bulldogs / stafs and the like have a bad name (td)

Go Jess! Hope there is no attempt to have her destroyed.

I do however feel most sorry for the dead dog.

[bigbadwolf]

I don't think there will be any attempt to have him (Jess) destroyed as he was protecting himself and wasn't fighting a person. As I already said I wasn't there but it was in broad daylight with alot of witnesses.

Some people are incapable of owning a pet, my sister has a staff cross and I can categorically say that the dog is a wonderful pet there is no malice in him whatsoever hes a bit of a pest because he is so affectionate and wont leave me alone when I visit, hes a good dog it's the owners who ill treat the dogs and make them vicious. I personally would have punched the feckers into the middle of next week, they should be banned from owning any animals.

[LegalEagle-ish]

That's horrible. I don't know what I'd do if someone tried something like that with my dog. I'd be mortified.

mmmmmmmmmmmm...........so the police aren't aware yet it's common. Forgive my slight cyncism BBW but a friend etc....

You will be surprised how many South Londoners from Grove Park/Hither Green/Ladywell walk their dogs in Footscray/Crayford/Oxleas Woods for this very reason.

Alsations are wonderful dogs and I feel so sorry for the victim having these scum for owners.

Like the Guy mentioned in The South London Press, who took his maimed, weak Pit-Bull and pushed it off the nearest tower block accompanied by his leering m8's and then put the remnants in the nearest trash can.

I don't know who I despise the most ..the perpetrators or the Members of The General Public who, effectively, condone this behaviour by doing f+++ all about it....

Most days in the various Parks that I walk with my 4 West Highland Terriers I will speak to 10 different owners about their dogs and almost, unanimously, these owners love their Dogs for the wonderful characters they are and to think these Guys can do this to someones beloved pet sickens me.

I found my mind constantly thinking of this while watching The Chelsea/Liverpool game and I'm so sad that certain members of our Society behave like this...it was never like this b4..never....

Good ol' days eh, TLS? ;-)

The only reason I don't subscribe to capital punishment is because it's not possible to get it right all the time. However, I think that people who would wilfully train a dog to set it on a stranger's pet are demonstrating such a lack of respect for society that they don't deserve to be part of it.

Absolutely H.

These Guys actually get a kick out of it in the same way as some Muggers actually enjoy inflicting violence long after the robbery has occurred.

Its as if the situation has got to deterioriate to a new nadir b4 something is done and deterrents are just that.

[Huguenot]

That was the capital punishment gag ;-)

[daizie]

Right Quids since you had difficulty reading/understanding what I posted I'll try my upmost to make it as clear as possible.

I wasn't there and didn't make the call to the authorities but I imagined when they were told a nasty fight between two fully grown/powerful dogs was happening in a public park with small children present they wanted to prevent a human tragedy as swiftly as possible as I'm sure until the full facts were made available everyone present thought that an out of control dog was making to attack to small boys but had been stopped in it's tracks by their dog.

Your comment, 'They weren't aware'. Aware of what?

What I think you're refering to is that a specific type of fight was taking place. Only after talking to witnesses who said that the deceased dog had a group of suspicious looking owners (without uttering the cha...... word I hope you can picture them) that walked/ran off after it had become apparent that their dog was onto a loser they abandoned him whilst my friend and owner of the Alsation stayed put and spoke to the Police. I imagine since this type of sport is in it's infancy so to speak I don't think it would be too critical of the cops to say it temporarily sliped under their radar. After talking to several people present they explained the plausible explaination as to what happened. I think that the owners ran off speaks volumes in this case.

I never said it's common. I said from a second hand source that it's 'becomeing common'.

Please get you facts straight before letting cynicism take over.
