monkey104 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Well I must say the dogs I've seen look very unhappy and cold. Probably waiting for its owner to take him home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest makapaka Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 They get a dog for sympathy from people. ( therefore more money) I feel so sorry for the dogs, with their sad eyes, and lack of excercise. I would have thought that the RSPCA would have something to say about this situation ! Only in this day and age could you get a post like this . Damn beggars seeking sympathy - look at the little doggies sad eyes..... Let's focus on the bigger issue eh?

paula4sheff Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 http://www.sheffieldnewsroom.co.uk/rough-sleeping-providing-the-facts/ C & P The last official count of rough sleepers in Sheffield – reported to Government in December 2016 – showed 15 people sleeping rough. Sorry-i should have linked to the stats. 15 is correct. Om a city the size of sheffield i'm sure we'd all agree that is incredibly low. Of those 15 as well, many of them choose tp be sleeping rough. It's a figure that should be publicized more as it proves there is absolutely not a homeless problem in sheffield. There is a drugs problem, funded by those who give beggars money.

Fudbeer Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 wow 15 is incredibly low and am sure will shock many people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should do, hopefully, but I think people see what they want to see - if someone tells them they are homeless, they want to believe them, and feel they are doing good rather than being conned into buying drugs.

centralguy Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Has anyone had to deal with the huge hulking bloke who sometimes walks with a crutch? Always used to ask for 9p? Hes a real nasty epic of work, if you dont give he dishes out some right abuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paula4sheff Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Right on cue...

Yes seen him hanging around bargain booze the 24 hour off licences on West Street am sure those places would go bust if it was not for "street drinkers" is there really demand for alcohol all night/morning on weekdays?
