Very wrong

Dictatorship country, money mad

This is ridiculous. 1 it is an off leash area 2 deed not breed 3 lead restrictions should be a case by case, she is a therapy dog they must be thoroughly trained, vet checked and temperment checked clearly not a threat 4 quite simply...ffs

So they should. He is part of Victoria's fractured society, that has led to his State becoming the'basket case ' of the Nation!!

That's the communist state for ya,

My poor little dog is regularly attacked by other dogs small medium and large that are on a lead..now I pick her up everytime I see another dog coming towards us....why do people take their dogs out for walks if they are untrained and going to try and eat everyone else’s dog

Money grab

off leash park what is wrong with that

Just follow the law, simple.

Because the greyhound had no mask 😷

Whilst the ethical investors brought Rio to account, the same cannot be said of the AFL. Reconciliation Aust. has revoked the endorsement of Rio Tinto. But the AFL snubs its nose at Indigenous Australians, by maintaining its Corporate Partnership with the disgraced miner !!
