Kingsland cycle path dog incident
Hi community. I am a regular jogger on the cycle/pedestrian path from Eden Terrace to Kingsland.
A woman walks a beagle dog on this path, and has had difficulty controlling it as I have run past previously.
Today, the Beagle jumped up and bit me on the hip. She had 2 young children with her.
She said sorry, however this is the second time the dog has bitten me. When I looked for her she had left the cycle path between Alexander St and Bright St. This incident happened around 4.17pm.
Please, if you know this woman, suggest she keep the dog off this cycle/pedestrian path. Also, suggest the Beagle has a restraint so that it cannot bite should it make contact with a pedestrian.
Attached is a photo of the dog bite.
Thank you
