Dogs are better behaved and don't leave litter like some people.

Dog walking areas where the dog can run freely are beginning to decrease fo reasons that make no sense, we need more open areas not less. As long as people pick up the mess I see no problem.

The majority of dog owners are responsible. Those that are not should be penalised . There should not be a blanket ban. The social and health benefits from responsible dog ownership are greatly required on the island. We have a population that need to excercise and socialize to help mental and physical well-being . Policymakers need to consider this.

If dog owners are not allowed to properly exercise their dogs this could lead to many frustrated animals. Many people delight in seeing animals out and about.

Dogs to be kept on lead if in Cemetery would be good as important for them and owner when visiting their lost ones. A fence off area for children park so dogs can’t get in. Beaches should be kept as the rules are know

Isle of Wight is a family friendly break from the rat race and dogs are our family too.

If you want to reduce mess then try banning festivals.

Dogs and other pets play a great part in supporting people's mental wellbeing and physical health. Walking anywhere on this beautiful Island should be encouraged.

The dog friendly attitude is main reason we come to the Isle of Wight. This ban could seriously damage tourism

Actually start fining people who don't pick up after their dogs, it would help pay for more waste bins and their maintenance.
