There do seem to be a really high proportion of these bull terrier type dogs in Forest Hill, or is it just something that is common in London generally? I'm often crossing the road to avoid those sort of dogs when I'm with my toddler (especially after the recent snarling incident I mentioned earlier) as I just don't trust them (or their owners) I'm afraid.
I'm not a dog hater by any means - plenty of my friends and family have lovely well-behaved dogs. But I am just getting so fed-up, what with the daily dog-poo-assault-course, and then also avoiding the bull terriers, I feel like my life is being dictated to by other people's pets.
