Appeal for dogs to be banned from cemeteries

A local woman has called on the council to clamp down on irresponsible dog owners who are taking their pets for walks in ‘scared’ cemetery grounds and not cleaning up after them.
The call comes from Rosemount woman Dorothy Campbell whose husband James in buried in the City Cemetery.
She says dog fouling has become a bigger issue in the past couple of years.
It is contradictory, she believes, for the council to have ‘no dogs’ signage outside while also installing dog waste bins inside the cemetery grounds.
In her view, the cemetery is hallowed ground and there are vast open spaces around the town where dogs can be walked.
