A dog walker who became a global internet sensation after a video of him chasing his dog, chasing deer in Richmond Park appeared on You Tube hails from Southfields.

According to The Sun, Max, an architect, and his beloved pooch Fenton live near Augustus Road.

In last week's video, an instant hit on You Tube, Max is heard screaming "Fenton" as his mischievous mutt steers the 30-strong herd dangerously toward a road.

A bloodbath was narrowly avoided as eagle-eyed motorists spotted the herd thundering toward across the road and slammed on their brakes.

The clip, which has been viewed more than 600,000 times, has become a hit on Twitter.

But dogwalkers have criticised Max citing his decision to take such a young and fast dog to Richmond Park it as an example of irresponsible dog ownership.

In The Sun's story, a neighbour of Max's is quoted as saying: "Max is mortified. Fenton's a lively dog, but he'd never done this before.

"Max won't be taking him back to Richmond Park any time soon and is considering giving him a new name if the fuss goes on."
