A Gatvol Bluff Facebook post warned residents about two pitbulls roaming the streets of the suburbs last night.
This has come to light in the wake of this morning’s Pitbull attack on two women and their dog at Garvies Beach.
Desiree Elms, who shared the post at 10.22pm yesterday, urged people to keep their dogs in secure in their yards, as she feared someone would get bitten. “People must keep their pitbulls locked up. There are dogs running on the road fighting through the gate with my dogs and the owners don’t want to come down the road to fetch them. What if my gates were opened. We would have had a blood bath on our hands. People need to be more responsible.” said Desiree.
