I find it hard to accept that dog owners believe dogs should be running free on this beach (Times, March 16) when swimmers and other beach goers want a quiet enjoyable time during summer months.
Many free-running dogs are excitable and annoying to non-dog owning people.
Why should they have preference on a beach? Try an open reserve or the western end of the beach.
One other point — it is my experience that far too many owners currently ignore the existing summer restriction.
Pointing out the restriction is often met with a level of scorn.
