Stop the Ban of Dogs on Llanelian Field
Stop the Ban of Dogs on Llanelian Field
Why this petition matters
I feel in this current climate, green spaces offer us freedom, exercise and a sense of normality from lockdown conditions and helps ease the strain of the past 3 months on our mental health. I myself bring my two trust companions along on my daily walks to ensure they are still receiving the exercise and mental stimulation they need. I believe no dog should be denied access of running free in a lush grass field.
I understand the concerns and why this ban is being implemented as not all dog owners do correctly clean up after their animals. However, I feel that this only represents a very small portion of our community and the majority of my fellow dog walkers do properly adhere to the cleaning up of their beloved pets. If every open space was to be closed to dogs purely on dog excrement then I feel there would be a huge limit on where dogs could be walked. Not everyone has a large garden or a car to travel to dog friendly locations. Why should the majority lose out from the errors of the minority?
