A member of the Redcar and Cleveland council has raised alarms about the growing risk posed by uncontrolled pets in local parks. Recent incidents where dogs have bitten park users have prompted the councillor to demand a stronger enforcement presence and clearer rules on leashing animals. He argues that current guidelines are not being respected and that families, especially those with children, should not have to fear a stroll through a public green area. The council member suggests increasing patrols by park wardens and imposing higher penalties for owners who allow their dogs to roam without restraint. The appeal comes as the borough reviews its public‑space policies, aiming to balance animal owners' rights with the safety of the wider community. The push for tougher measures reflects broader national debates on pet responsibility. #Redcar #Cleveland #parks #dogcontrol #council #publicsafety Fuente: Yorkshire Post
