The Wellington and District Sports Federation and Wellington Action Group for Dogs have formally struck up a working relationship to campaign for responsible dog ownership in Wellington.

The Federation wishes to see the by law relating to the ban on dogs at Wellington Playing Field enforced and effective management of canines practiced on Wellington Recreation Ground, Wellington Rugby Club’s outfield estate and the Dobree Park site and by working with WAG feels that this can be achieved.

An initial meeting has been held this evening and an action plan has been made; notes will be sent out to the Executives of both bodies and this will be the start of the project.
