More details from petition creator

We believe that: -

1/ Dog ownership is an important part of the British psyche and should be encouraged.

2/ Approximately one third of the population are Dog owners and the majority of them are responsible.

3/ It is vital to sometimes exercise dogs off- lead, not to do so is cruel.

4/Dogs have been exercised in the forest for hundreds of years.

5/ Dogs play a considerable part in National life, eg, Sniffer dogs, Guide dogs etc. and they are widely believed to have therapeutic qualities.

6/ The formation of a National Park is intended to improve the facilities for the whole population. It was not meant to be an expensive, dictatorial, bureaucracy introducing more and more restrictions.
