Roaming White Dog

Faye from Woolston

For about the last fortnight a large male white dog, possibly a bull mastiff (my knowledge of dog breeds isn't great) has been roaming in Smith Street, Woolston. He's been neutered and has no collar, and no road sense - he just wanders out in front of cars. He seems to be in good … View moreFor about the last fortnight a large male white dog, possibly a bull mastiff (my knowledge of dog breeds isn't great) has been roaming in Smith Street, Woolston. He's been neutered and has no collar, and no road sense - he just wanders out in front of cars. He seems to be in good condition, so possibly not a stray, but I am concerned for him going out on the road. I think he must have been the dog that left a calling card in my front garden the weekend before last, because today after work I startled him in the garden. He wasn't aggressive but didn't hang around either. Does anyone recognize this description and know where the dog belongs?
