Beware of a greyish dog that looks a bit like a small dingo and is wearing a harness. It attacked my dog this morning in PRP.


I had seen it earlier worrying another dog in the flower gardens at the entrance, then it ran off - no sign of its owner. When I saw it again, it was over the far side of the lower end of the park with a woman and another dog. I could see it watching my dog so we turned to walk in the opposite direction. But it galloped over, knocked my 16-year-old dog off her feet and then carried on worrying her until I managed to grab her to calm her down.


The owner was a good 50 metres away and did nothing to intervene, but did hold on to the dog as we walked away. Still, I saw it again running around on its own near the Sexby Garden. The owner is clearly unable to control it or can't be bothered.


So do take care of your four-legged friends. I wouldn't want your dog to go through want mine did.


This was posted by Doglover yesterday. It got lounged. I'm posting it in the main section again because it will be useful for dog owners to take note if they have not done so already.

Can you give more of a description of the dog and owner? A very aggressive dog had a go at my dog when we were leaving the park on Sunday morning about 11 am. They were coming in by the Forest Hill Road entrance. I don't remember the owner but the dog seemed like it had some large dark spots in its coat. It could have been grey coloured. I don't remember a harness. It came rushing up to my dog with its teeth bared, snapping and snarling. I have experienced similar problems in the park, once with a Weimeramer who tackled my dog to the ground and started biting her. The owner was a way away, with children in a pushchair and feigned surprise when I started yelling. "What's the problem" were his exact words.

cate,


sorry I can't help. I have not seen the dog in question myself. The original poster, doglover, describes it as looking like a small, grey dingo. I have not seen a dog that fits the description but wanted to get the post back on the main forum area because forewarned...and all that.


Sorry to hear about your dog.

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
