American Pitbull in Putney (not a film title...)
I might be a bit too risk averse on this after a previous experience so thought I would put it out there and happily be shouted down if I'm being OTT. Recently I've seen a bloke walking an American Pitbull, it's very bog and powerful and looks frankly terrifying. On two separate occasions it has been on the embankment off the leash and has no recall at all. When it bounds up to people who freeze in horror the owner calls, is ignored so has to retrieve it telling the people not to worry as he's friendly. Even on the lead it's so powerful the guy can't seem to control him and if it wants to approach people it just takes the owner with it. Also the lead is so long the dog just chews on it. As I say, perhaps an over reaction Im sure it could be the most friendly dog in the world but it strikes me as a disaster waiting to happen.
