Rejected petition Dog mess on our beaches

More details

Complete ban of all dogs from our beaches May – October

Dogs mess is a real and unpleasant health hazard. Small children and adults alike run the gauntlet of encountering dog mess while using our beaches.

Last summer, in a half mile stretch of beach it was almost impossible to avoid either standing in it or scooping it up from just under the surface while playing with the little ones making sand castles or pitching a wind break.

This petition is for complete ban of all dogs from our beaches during spring and summer and force councils to enforce and heavily fine those ignoring and breaking any existing rules and to implement such rules where they do not exist.
