We Broke Through 2000 Signatures!
This sends a very loud & clear message To Edinburgh Council - the public want a change to the Cemetery Management Rules around the issue of dogs in cemeteries, specifically the selfish practice of using cemeteries as local, convenient, walled in dog exercise yards, where they can let their dog off lead, throw a ball etc.
This is not the dogs fault.
We love dogs, we are animal lovers and have pets ourselves.
This is purely down to the selfish "it's all about me, me, me...the rules dont apply to me" actions of dog owners.
Dare we dream of reaching 2500 signatures by the 8th of August, the day we deliver our Deputation to Edinburgh Council's Culture & Communities Committee?
