Laws on walking a dog in Polska [67]
That's all very interesting Slawek - I would have thought the law can be interpreted as:
Dogs are not allowed to be taken into the forest for non licensed hunting purposes - aka - they are hunting breeds and trained as such.
Dogs must not be encouraged or permitted to freely hunt aggressively as their breed inclines them to do.
Both the above are obvious to anybody with half a brain-lobe.
I do not include some bint in this who has gone shopping in the Klif in Sopot and decided to go walking in the forest in 3,000 zlotys of sports wear. That's her choice - but she can't complain when a sociable lab
puppy plants his grubby paws on her legs when she approaches us when we are playing catch and retrieve.
If foresters went around will-nilly shooting old ladies' dauchshounds for going down fox holes or young city boys' Spaniels for plunging into forest lakes full of (non-existent) wildlife then we would have social civil war on our hands.
The report you post is useful, but the public need some CLEAR direction as to the law - posted at the edge of the forest - and then cows like this woman I met can know that they don't own the forest by spouting rightfully outmoded law and threatening my dog with gas.
Thank you ;))
