dog shows<\/strong>. As reported in April\u2019s What’s On, Wenvoe\u2019s Carolyn Horton won the Dog Obedience category at Crufts in 2022 and came second in this year\u2019s competition. The Vale of Glamorgan Agricultural Show usually provides such an opportunity. This year\u2019s show returns to Penllyn on Wednesday 7th August. Further afield the South Wales Kennel Association has its four day show at the Royal Welsh Show ground, Builth Wells on 10th October.<\/p>\nNot everyone of course loves dogs. Dog fouling tops many people\u2019s list of concerns regarding problems found on the streets. Responsible dog owners do not need reminding that it is an offence not to remove any faeces deposited by their dog. The Vale council warn that if you fail to pick up after your dog you could be issued with a Fixed Penalty Notice of \u00a375 or be prosecuted which could result in a fine of up to \u00a31,000.\u2019 Clearly, dog faeces as well as urine, can cause health issues for those who come into contact with it. Less seriously, though often annoyingly, it can have a bad effect on private lawns. Bitches in particular, cause the greatest damage, because they tend to urinate in one spot, rather than dogs who tend to mark many spots and pass small amounts.<\/p>\n
Barking can also be a problem. However there is a solution. You can move to Little Rock, Arkansas where a local law prohibits dogs from barking after 6 pm!<\/p>\n
