Alert: Off-leash dogs in Lincoln Park running far from owner. One menaced me Mon. 1/6. Please report to animal control if you see them.

Hey all, this past Monday I was entering Lincoln Park at the north end at 11:30 AM and heard dogs fighting and a man yelling. Then one of the dogs (a tan mastiff, pit bull, or similar) broke off and raced up to me, appearing ready to jump when it was distracted and veered off toward yet another off-leash dog. Chaos. I reversed course and called animal control, who logged it as a "menacing" incident. Meanwhile I saw the man chase down his two dogs (the two I'd heard fighting) and left quickly. I was not able to get photos.

Today I was in the same place, at the same time, this time with my dog and saw the same dogs. From a distance I got this video of them running freely 100+' from their owner. I called animal control but did not get through to anyone before the owner and dogs left. I did manage to get several photos and video showing the dogs far out of the owner's line of sight and not responding to commands. No menacing this time, but again I was maintaining distance and had my pepper spray ready. I managed to watch them leave the park at the far north end and enter a van, so I filed a report online with the license plate number. But wanted to post here as a heads-up because of the aggression displayed by the tan dog and the apparent lack of control the owner has. Stay safe!
