I WAS sad to read in The Argus about Lucky the elderly dog that had to be put down after being attacked by two dogs on Blaen Bran mountain. As the owner of an older dog myself, there are certain places that I’m afraid to take him as I know there’ll be dogs not on a lead running around. Unfortunately thisit is happening more and more where aggressive dogs are not under proper control in public places. I sincerely hope the police will catch the people responsible before the same thing happens to another dog.
