I don’t have a problem with dogs being on the beach at any time of the day… as long as their owner cleans up after them and as long as they are kept under some sort of control so they don’t run all over people’s things.
Some people leave a lot more mess than most dogs, including allowing their young children to poo on the beach and then bury it in a shallow hole rather than pick it up in a bag. At least you can see the dog mess! (Most of the time)
We were on Sennen beach several times a couple of weeks ago and we did see at least half a dozen dogs on the beach every day but they didn’t bother us and we didn’t see them make any mess which wasn’t cleared up by their owner.
However, what we did see was a local, or we presume he was a local by the way he was talking with some of the staff from The Beach complex, leave a huge pile of his dog’s mess on the beach. As other people have said in other posts, it’s as much the locals as the holiday makers. |
