  1. Code of conduct
    Keep your dog under close control at all times.

    Never let your dog roam around the coast unattended as dogs can disturb wildlife and cause a nuisance to other visitors.
    Not everyone likes dogs, some people, especially children, are very afraid of them. Try and prevent your dog from running up to people even if the dog is just being friendly.

    Never leave a dog unattended in a car, even with the window open and water available. Take them out of the car and leave them in a secure, cool place with access to shade and water.

    Is lying.
