Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Urgent: Local dog- walker(s) appears to have bitten off more than they can chew - do you recognise these dogs?

Just how many dogs can be safely walked by one person at a time?

Some dog walkers seem to have no upper limit-- I have spotted one with twelve hounds!

Six months ago, I found a little terrier in Downhills Park, Tottenham, shaking and distressed. His dog-walker had so many dogs, she hadn't even noticed he was missing. Foul abuse  from her was all I received for reuniting them.

Only today I was shocked to see two groups of dogs - possibly from the same Canine cohort - tied to the railings at the entrance of Downhills Park (Downhills Park/Keston Road, N17) with not a soul in sight.  The dogs looked thoroughly distressed.  Do the owners of these dogs even know how poorly cared-for their pets are? 

As a responsible dog-walker, who is both insured and never walks more than 2 dogs at a time, I can only conclude that many others are are motivated purely by greed, and not by a love of animals, with some owners paying up to £20 per hour.

Please forward to anyone you know in the Tottenham and wider Haringey area who owns a dog(s).

Barking, even!

I agree with Justin that I would never leave a dog tied up unattended. I was in Crouch End recently and was worried to see so many dogs tied up outside a supermarket - as it only takes a moment for a dog to be stolen.

Here's a nice Christmas video and song - Driving Home for Christmas - Rescue Remedies

I know an excellent local dog walker/boarder. He is a friend of mine and a really nice man. I will send you his details in a private message.

I love German Shepherds, and Zara sounds like a lovely old girl.

Hi Anka

I offer pet sitting and dog walking in Finsbury Park area and have some availability coming up. I don't walk more than a couple of dogs at a time and would be happy to walk Zara or even come to your home to sit and keep her company for a bit when you do go back to work or otherwise have to leave her on her own. I have a couple of profiles online, one on Cat in a Flat (my oldest one with reviews) and have recently been accepted on Tailster. If I can be of any help, please do get in touch! :-)

That's no problem at all - I don't have availability until around mid-February myself (definitely one of those years already *lol* )
Hope all is week and do let me know of I can help!
