Hello. Thought I'd ask everyone's opinion on this as I witnessed something horrid today and not really sure what to do (or if there is anything I can do).
I was walking with family and friend at Lymm Dam today and a staffordshire bull terrier (think it was thay breed) attacked a puppy. The staff was on a lead but was being controlled by a young girl (around 12) who obviously didn't have the strength to stop the dog when he decided to attack. The dog's owner (girl's father) was shouting at the dog to let go and was trying to prize it's jaws open which didn't work and he got injured as a result. The owner of the puppy was frantic and her kids were traumatized. It wasn't until my partner grabbed the dogs tail that he let go. The lady of the puppy ran off holding the pup that wasn't moving. Not sure if he was dead or stunned. The man and his staff walked the other way.
Do/should I report this? It is playing on my mind and I'm shook up thinking about it but not really sure how to go about. If I did I couldn't give a good description of the man or any details as to where they went. It bothers me thay this dog didn't have a muzzle and the owner didn't know how to deal with its behaviour. There were young kids about including my own thay witnessed it. Really angry.
If I owned the land then I would try and profit from it too. Don't see what the fuss is. I heard that some of the profits were going to charity. Gary, can you confirm this is correct?
I haven't heard about this. Who is against it exactly Gary?
I think it is a lovely idea. I can't see why people would be against it. It is something a little different, it attracts people unto the town and the kids will love it!
Like you Dizzy, I have been meaning to go for some time. I went to Dunham Masses not long ago but didn't have the time or money with me to see it then. I didn't realise that they were closing it soon.
Anyone know the opening times?
