Now don't get me wrong, I am a responsible dog owner and love 4 legged friends, but walking through the park just now I had a scary incident. A large muscular dog off lead came past our goldie who was on a lead and growled, so my DH walked past as quickly as he could into the distance. Then the horrid beast lunged at me, paws on my chest and face to face. I stumbled to get away, caught my foot on the side of the bridge and fell flat. Two bruised knees and one cut palm.
Ohwell, at least I didn't fall in the river or get bitten, but it shook me up.
Keep dogs on leads in parks.
