Did it! Saw lovely primroses growing wild on the banks and in the ditches. Horrible thing happened on my 5 minute cool down . My dog a small spaniel was attacked by an Alsatian dog. Scary. No lasting psychological damage done but will have to go to the vets.

Seems to be ok I am now going to bath her and then probably go to the vets. It’s a really difficult situation. I have the owners address and he is an old man.I get the impression the dog is his only company. I am going to go round to see him tomorrow to talk it through and explain how the dog must go out with a muzzle. It’s a really dangerous dog. And its owner doesn’t seem to be able to control him. I shall ask him to pay the vets fees.

Just read your post . Great that you had a nice run .

Hope your dog is okay. As of last night I've changed one of my dog walking routes . My dog wasn't actually attacked but came close . Being out with our dogs is supposed to be relaxing but sometimes its not. 😊🐕
