Stop the IOW council bringing in the ban of dogs in public spaces

Will avoid Isle of Wight if this happens

Such a shame there are the minority that spoil it for the majority. I agree with no dogs in children's play areas. But to ban from the beaches is crazy. We love our walks on the beach during the winter and we respect the no dog ban during the summer....this will be another nail in the tourism coffin. Our island is a renowned dog friendly place,let's keep it this way

This shouldn’t be a thing

This is just outrageous. We have to have the worst council on the planet.

Ridiculous to ban dogs from places

Maybe a ban of some people in public places would be more beneficial,as I live in a town next to a square that is used & abused by alchoholics & drug users, never seen a dog walker/owner being a nuisance

Good god ! How utterly ridiculous! Bad enough that the ban on dogs on beaches runs way beyond and before the school holidays! What do the Council think they’ll do about the loss of car park revenue when people like me who walks on Yaverland beach almost daily, stop spending an absolute fortune for the privilege. Both Apply and Yaverland make an mint for the council from us dog walkers.

This

Why would anyone want dogs to be stopped in public places??

How stupid so long as people pick up the mess let them go where they want

I can't believe it. It must be a joke!!

Not all dog owners are irresponsible don't punish us all. It will effect our tourism on the Island as being friendly for walkers and their dogs

An island with a dog friendly reputation and a tourist industry that dog owners choose to visit as a result of this reputation. This is madness!!

It's bad enough dog ban on beach for summer season were on earth are dog walkers suppose to go

Absolutely pathetic! Council needs to realise most holiday makers have dogs!

Ridiculous

Being a dog friendly Island is one of the reasons my friends and I visit. Why take that away? We are responsible dog owners

The trade brought to the island through tourism is greatly enhanced by the number of dog owners who flock to spend time walking on your much loved beaches. To ban this trade would be detrimental to your economy.

idiots the lot off them....

Yes, keep dogs off the main tourist beaches during the holiday season but let us have our beloved open spaces like the Duver and Bembridge beaches for all year round fun.
