Just been up The Hoe in Plymouth to walk the dog...he was playing nicely off the lead with his ball and his sister, running around loving it. Going up to other dogs being nice...then a dog same size as him but black came along on the lead with his 73yr old owner. To be honest seen them a few times and he not keen on the little black dog but I thought nothing of it as he wasnt taking any notice just playing with his sister. Well next thing I know he gone over to the black dog and started fighting with it :rant: they were running round in circles around the old lady then next thing she fell backwards and hit her head on the floor...I grabbed my dog and gave him to my mum. Lots of people came around and ambulance was called as she had really big bump on her head. It was an accident, she got tangled in lead but she wouldnt let the dog go. Ambulance checked her over but as she had bump took her off to hospital. They said she will be fine but I feel really terrible now and the dog is in the naughty corner :mad:

jeeez i hope shes ok.

what dogs were they?

Hi - Sorry to read about the dog-fight! Not trying to take sides but was it OK to have a dog off the lead on the Ho? I was involved in a similar incident some time ago and left myself open to a private prosecution and being sued.

bless as long as she was understanding thats good!
