An Edinburgh dog owner has shared concerns over her dog’s safety after reports of a spate of off-lead dog attacks around the city.
Grace, a young dog owner in Corstorphine, and her beloved dog Cecil have resorted to walking and playing on isolated footpaths and poorly maintained green spaces to avoid encounters with off-lead ‘out of control’ dogs.
“There are aggressive off-lead dogs that have bitten on lead dogs in my area and when reported to the dog warden, nothing gets done about it. You will see the same dogs running around a field not under control. It’s a really scary time to be a dog owner,” she said.
