This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We can't accept your petition because we aren't sure what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.

In any case, the rules around access to parks for dogs would be the responsibility of your local council or the park owner and not the UK Government or Parliament.

If you are concerned about a particular park you could raise your issue with a local councillor, who represents you.

You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them:
