I wonder if it's the same two staffies that have had incidents at Goose Green and Brockwell Park? 

If it is, the police had been notified about them and their oxygen thief of an owner multiple times and did nothing. 

He publicly trained the dogs' bite grip. 

Why does it take someone's beloved pet dying for action to be taken?

O no! I do hope it wasn’t the poor dog owner from last week who posted about an attack!

What were the incidents(s) at goose green you mention ?

I’ve seen someone walking around Crystal Palace road/goose green with two huge staff/pit type dogs always off lead and could almost predict a problem given the guy’s menacing demeanour, so wonder if related to your comment.

I know exactly who you're talking about. He recently remarked glibly, as he walked past me, that he 'would set his dogs on' something or other. Can't remember the context, but it confirmed the impression I already had that he weaponises his pets and likes that they intimidate people. I won't go outside with my dog if he's passing.

Just for balance - I have met a young chap with 2 XL type dogs on Goose Green who were utterly sweet and bonkers. Not aggressive in any way. 

however I understand there are been 2 dog attacks close to peckham library by XL type dogs - one on a dog, and apparently one on a man - I do not have info about the second but the police have been informed about the former - hopefully caught on CCTV

We need dog free space - no matter how "sweet" these dogs are!

Goose green has become one big dog exercise area.  If your dog is off lead you still need to control it.
