Going home tomorrow had great time but was surprised by state of Carvoeiros beach! Saw quite a few bits dog pooh and an unbelievable amount of fag ends! I felt concerñed about young kids playing on beach with dog mess around-not only dirty but dangerous as we all know how disease can be contracted from dog dirt and cause blindness!
That beach needs a good clean and dogs should not be allowed there!

tell that to 'digger' and 'doggie lover', at least babbies use nappies

haha…. ( portugeezer, hope you’re thankful I forgot to mention you on the ‘get MC topic’)
actually, I think when the tourist season starts next week dogs will be barred from the beach

even if they are barred it dosn't stop people ignoring the signs and letting their dogs do whatever they want on the beaches

Do you think the "powers that be" could bar glass bottles from the beach.When we go to the "village" beach,Ispend most of my time making sure the kids don´t rip their feet open.I don´t like dog´s s--t,but it´s better than broken glass.(visitors beware!)

This subject will be brought to the attention of the local authority.

Thank you for your input.

Can you be more specific for it seems that there are several 'get MC' topics

If I allow Jak to poo in the street or in a park or on the beach or in the countryside and I don't pick it up I could be saddled with a fine of £1000.

Are there any laws/by-laws in Portugal like this?

Thank you Gambrinus.BOA SORTE

Don't go down the "what time is the forum running on?" road, HP - it is one of those unsolved mysteries involving alien abductions and the NSA.

Just consider it CST (Carvoeiro.com standard time )

...First I love dogs and generally have no problem with them only their bad owners...Sitting on the beach in CVO with my mother-in-law last week there was a rogue dog with a collar on was wondering the beach around mid-day. A young family with their toddler came on to the beach, the toddler was running in the sand, as kids do, when this dog, about medium size, just lept at the little one and pulled him to the ground. Although there was no real harm done it gave the family a real fright and put and end to what should have been a nice afternoon. I think they have a dog ban around May time in CVO don't they? It happens everywhere even on our beaches, it's difficult to stop if owners let their dogs wander the streets

What's the problem, it's correct on my PC

Come on Michael, are you up for it or is your dog as well behaved as you?

I'll have to wait until they progress onto the cats

They both stink

Hope the dogs have a calender with them. Twould be far easier to stitch the bad end up.
