I am asking for all Isle of Wight residents and our much needed tourists to sign this petition. The Isle of Wight council are trying to bring an act into play, where dogs will be banned from 49 public spaces including our much loved beaches and cemeteries!

We pride ourselves on being a dog friendly island! I'm sure we all have family who have dogs that visit loved ones graves. Or enjoy a nice stroll along the beach in winter and a hot drinks to warm you up at the local beach huts that get steady business throughout the year thanks to dog walkers!
