much anxiety among dog walkers in this park. they have been warned that a strange woman with long grey hair is trying to feed poisoned snacks to the dogs. can't find anyone who has sen her. might be another urban myth like the peckham panther or the surrey puma, but if is true it is really terrifying.

I had a text from a fellow dog owner about this woman, she entices your dog by throwing food toward it and then starts saying that your dog has bitten her. The person that texted me got it from a worker in peckham Rye Park. I heard she has long grey hair sometimes in a bun? If this is all true, then its really not funny if you are, like me, a dog owner :(
Right, another fellow dog owner called me today, he had a run in with the woman yesterday I think. She comes up all nice and engages you in conversation. She asked my friend if his dogs would bite her, he said well she's growling at you so I wouldn't come to close, she then proceeded to ask him what he would do if one of his dogs bit her and that she'd want it putdown etc, he told her to get lost. This was in the morning, earlyish 8/9am she has a long green coat and shoulder length grey hair and is quite tall. This is not an urban myth, it is happening.

Poison ? How When Where? Is this an assumption because she offers food?

Best give her an ASBO, just in case I reckon.

Either that or take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

I've been asked to post my response to a PM about this:

Thanks for connection to original thread...I thought there must be one. Although this may not amount to anything at all, I was somewhat upset by some of the flippant remarks. OK, I know I made a Cruella ref. in my first message. But the manner in which my young Labrador died from ingested Paraquat was really ghastly. So let's try to get to the truth...yes?

Not Peckham Rye but from the independent


"Six dogs have died after eating poisoned meat left on a London golf course. Police believe the dogs ate chicken and tripe which had been laced with paraquat.


The poisoned meat was left near the 14th tee of the public golf course at Beckenham Place Park in Bellingham, south-east London, earlier this month. Detective Sergeant Clive Barnes said: 'We strongly believe this was done deliberately and are treating the matter very seriously. Whether it is someone with something against dogs for some reason we don't know.'"

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
