I am very concerned to read about the new licence requirements that may be introduced for dogs in local parks that were announced TODAY. I am not gullible or dim in anyway but my dog is and I am not sure he would pass the tests needed to get a licence. Does anyone own a bright black lab who would be able to act as a ringer for the Zoom classes?

But what if the dog wants to ride a bicycle on the common ?

All Labs, black or golden, are dim so you should just accept it and embrace it and live with the fact that he/she will never get a license.

I don't think Anita needs to look at the date Al, have a look at the word in capitals.BTW Anita I thought that was a brilliant post re the front page article.

"All Labs....are dim..." Let's hope that no Labs have read that post, because if you lose your sight one day you may find yourself being refused help.
The licensing arrangements are pointless unless the dogs wear number plates so they can be identified.

"Licenced dogs would be required to wear a hi-viz orange coat which would be available in three sizes and have the dog’s name, breed, colour and registration on the side."
Yes and they should wear helmets too!Actually a registration number is to be included on the jackets the dogs have to wear. I am not sure however that fixed ANPR cameras would be adequate given that dogs don't stick to a fixed location. Perhaps drone technology could be employed to ensure proper enforcement. Also has the issue of owners lending these jackets to other owners been considered? Some dog facial recognition technology would be needed to ensure this didn't happen.

Some years ago on this Forum on April Fool's Day...I reported that the much respected Brentford and Chiswick Times newspaper "Had been folded up" Hee hee. The much respected Vanessa blazed in with all sorts of picturesque words..not realising she had been fooled.My next post showed my picture of the Newspaper folded neatly to sandwich size!I've just remembered that. Ha ha!
