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.

    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
