Dogs play at North Vancouver鈥檚 Central Lonsdale off-leash dog park, on July 4, 2022. West Vancouver council is considering a plan to allow dogs on the Centennial Seawalk | Mike Wakefield/North Shore News

Dear Editor:

Re:

I have just read the above article which states that the West Vancouver Council - not the general public whom it will impact - is considering allowing leashed dogs on the Centennial Seawalk. Dog owners have become the new entitled group. It’s not enough that they have their own off-leash park, that they have their own dog run adjacent to the seawalk, now their owners are demanding they be allowed on a pedestrian friendly stretch.

I walk this area daily and, although I am a dog lover, I am happy not to have to dodge them or their poop or their leashes as they run across the path to greet or even attack other dogs.

Please leave this little bit of paradise to us non-dog owners. It’s only a few kilometres for heaven’s sake.
