Allow dogs on Yarra Bay Beach.... Dogs do not leave rubbish such as beer bottles, drink bottles, plastic bags, fishing lines and hooks and numerous other rubbish items I have picked up from the beach . These are left by " humans" yet they are still allowed to use the beach... Most dog owners are responsible and the only people I have witnessed picking
up after the so called "humans" are dog owners. Dogs are part of the family...let them run on the beach and cool down in the water. This keeps dogs and owners active and engaged in the community in a most enjoyable environment. Other councils in NSW offer this service so why not Randwick!!!!!

Dogs should be welcome at yarra bay, it is the perfect spot for families to enjoy a swim with their pets.

What a great plan. We must be one of the only cities in the world that doesn't allow dog access to beaches etc.
The south end of Maroubra beach during designated hours would also be a great area for our beloved companions . Of-course different hours for summer and winter months .
Let's make it happen.

I like to holiday with my dogs. They are well trained and well behaved and love to swim. I would like to take my dogs to a conveniently located beach when staying in Randwick, just like when we holiday in St Kilda.

The City of Fremantle (WA) have fantastic access to beaches and parks adjacent to beaches for dogs and humans alike, it works well. The majority of people welcome the opportunity to abide by strict rules about managing your dog in theses places in order to be allowed to take their dogs there. Could Randwick City Council at least run a pilot project to see how this works.

It's time Randwick Council made beaches more accessible to all the community, including people with dogs. There are enough beaches and bays that at least one could be used for the community of dog owners.

My sister lives at Coogee and they have a dog - my dogs live in Adelaide and they have the joy of being able to run free on the beach (restricted hours during Summer) and absolutely love the experience - you can see the smile on their faces :) Most dog owners are responsible and I totally support this petition and look forward too spending time on a beach in Sydney with Snowie (the new dog in their lives)...

I suggest dogs be allowed access to the Northern section of Little Bay ie to the left of the Storm Water Drain where the majority of rocks are located.....not as popular as the sandy side to the right.

There are so many kilometers of beach and rock pools along the coastline in the Eastern Suburbs; it would be great to have a few areas dedicated to dogs and their owners where dogs have an opportunity to play and socialise particularly as the weather is getting hotter. What about Clovelly Bay rock pool as an option for dogs? It isn't much as a public swimming area and perfect for dogs. It is a fair distance away from Clovelly Beach, so enough room for everyone to enjoy the space.

Yarra Bay should allow dogs on the beach 24/7. The park above the north end of Yarra Bay should definitely be an off leash dog park - no playgrounds or barbecues are there - the perfect area

Our dog has elbow displacia and is only 15 months old. All vets have prescribed SWIMMING as the best for of exercise but unfortunately this comes with the risk of a hefty fine as there are no do beaches in our area! The council should consider allocating a beach and certain times to enable residents to exercise their dogs off leash and in the water! The closest beach for us is Rose Bay which is a good 30minute drive. Surprising though that a more affluent suburb is willing to be more flexible..

Providing a beach space within restricted hours for dog access is simply providing a service to your dog owning rate payers and recognising the benefit canine friends provide to urban dwellers. There are many similar sites around Australia, none of which create risk or real problems. Come on Randwick Council, come into the 21st C and serve ALL your residents.

5pm is dark in winter. This is very much a compromise. We pay rates too, and abide by very strict laws. Council needs to take notice of the half of household that have a dog.

200m of beach up the industrial end of Yarra Bay...preferably all year 16:00 - 09:00, or how about daylight saving months at least? Seriously, there is nowhere in Sydney to just have a lovely swim and chuck a ball on the beach with your furry friend. People who don't like dogs could swim at all the hundreds of beaches on which dogs are banned. It's just a little slab of sand but it would mean SO MUCH to dog owners.

Randwick Council should examine the Gold Coast Council policy which allows dogs on leashes on nearly all beaches at all times except within a specified distance of flagged areas. A number of off-leash beach areas are also provided along the coastal strip. The policy is well understood, strongly enforced and works well. Gold Coast beaches are heavily used and important to that city's economy. Gold Coast Council is widely regarded as one of the best managed local authorities in Australia.

There is no reason dogs should be banned from beaches, people make more mess, as for attracting owners from all over sydney that is rubbish as the north already has dog beaches as does the south, this would really only be used by people from the eastern suburbs. the beach along foreshore drive was fantastic until they ruined it with boats and such. Also people rarely even use yarra bay same as malabar, why not give it some use and give it to the dogs!!

There are many relativley uncrowded beaches and even parts of beaches in Randwick Municipaity that could easily be used for dog use without causing inconvenience to other beach goers.
Some examples are the northern side of Little Bay Beach and the southern end of Yarra Bay.
Please use this opportunity to ensure that dog owners are able to enjoy activites with their pets and thus keeping everyone healthy, happy and enjoing this great area.

there are so many beaches on the eastern coast we must be able to find some space for dogs to be. People can then choose if they want to go to a dog beach or one without dogs. It shoudl not be a criminal act to enjoy the outdoors with animals. Visit Switzerland - they take their dogs to restaurants!
