There is a distressed dog in a back garden accessible via side return on the upper end of Oakhurst Grove. 

He barks for most of the day. First noticed several months ago and then stopped. Has started again over the last couple of weeks.

 

Last time, myself and several neighbours and passers-by went back to him and gave him water and food. He was on his own in the back garden. House was empty. 
 

Does anyone know what’s going on?  
 

Any advice?

Hey, know exactly the doggo you are talking about. We live v close. I work remotely and have been noticing this for months - as have my neighbours - it happens a couple times a day and I feel so sorry for it.  I looked at the RSPCA website and the first route is to speak to the council, noting it as a "noise complaint", so we did this today. The council won't escalate as the barrier for dog's barking being a "problem" is very high, thus we're a bit stuck.  The only way it can be escalated (I would think) is lots of people repeatedly noting with the council and/or video evidence, and then if they don't act we try the RSPCA again (perhaps).

Must be someone  who can help - never heard that RSPCA would not come out for a dog in distress and even worse that from what I have read or gathered this has been going one for abit… guess it is a question  of passing the buck and I thought ED were a dog friendly community. Surely one of you who have commented could have asked for advice from vet in Lordship Lane or even picked up the phone and called them…

      Niko the Plumber

      By Matt@eastdulwich · Posted

      I used the Forum to find a reliable plumber who could respond to an emergency. Niko responded quickly and was able to come over and fix the problem efficiently and effectively. He was professional, courteous and thoughtful. He was also keen that I contacted him after a few days to check with him that I was still happy with the work he had done.  I have no hesitation in recommending Niko and would certainly call on him again.  Thanks Niko

      Wood Vale shops and facilities - where have they gone

      By malumbu · Posted

      Thanks George.  The sub post office sold penny sweets - a blast from the past.  They were happy to let the post office go as they told me there had been some serious robberies - with menace.  But it didn't last much longer Roy operated from very old coach house building from the adjacent hotel, he sold these and built a brand new facility, he had to use yellow brick, but then some personal stuff meant that he had to let it go, and there was no reason to keep a garage there so were turned into apartments.  There were some very shacky and old buildings on the other side (to the left as you look from the street) and a mobile mechanic used to work from there, but they went I think after Covid. The coal sheds from the branch line would have been behind as well. I phoned Robert Elms up on his programme when he was asking about a London pub which had doubled up as an undertakers.  It may have been the Moore Park Hotel but I was more interested in Elm's views as he doesn't recognise that SE London exists, Well, begrudgingly Peckham, as one of his kids lives there. We did a local pub crawl many years ago starting with the hotel, which had been turned into flats by then, but we had some home made stout and made our own pub sign for a bit of fun. Of course this side of the road is Lewisham, so we shouldn't be discussing it here, but I wont tell anyone.
