| Dog owners and dog lovers, welcome! This is a web site for viewing and "signing" a petition to Toronto City Council regarding the City's draft policy on off-leash dog exercise in Toronto parks. The petition was started by a few dog owners who meet regularly in Ramsden Park. We are worried about the policy's practical implications for off-leash dog exercise in our neighbourhoods. We are also concerned that the policy reveals no awareness of the social value of off-leash dog exercise in neighbourhood parks. |

| The petition is now closed! 316 Torontonians signed the petition to remind City Council that off-leash areas in neighbourhood parks are both good public policy and a requirement of fairness for dog owners. Thanks to all who signed. You can still contact us. Click here. |
