Proposed legislation is moving through Albany that would allow dog owners to have state park beach access. Dog lovers told McLoganTV on Monday their petition has legs and lawmakers are listening.
"When people ask us, 'Where we can take our dogs to a beach on Long Island?' It's so frustrating to say, well, practically nowhere," said Ginny Munger Kahn, president of Long Island Dog Owners Group."Our taxes help support these parks that we are banned from, that we are denied complete and total access to," group member Peggy Heijmen said.
Dogs are prohibited due to several concerns, including harassing native wildlife, too much barking, uncontrolled dogs, and leaving behind dog waste."It's really a people concern, as long they act responsibly," one man said."We were just walking on the beach over there and a dog just went top of him, a really big dog," one woman said of her husband."Dogs are now viewed as furry children in our families," Kahn said.
