Dog walking on the Corniche?

WHO LET THE DOGS OUT???????????????????

please tell me when you'll be at corniche with your dog so i reschedule

sincerely

cynophobic

Yalla!

You will be stopped eventually. It won't be the Arabs that stop you, it is the Indians that hates dogs.

They seem them as dirty; which is shocking as most Indians don't wash their hands and spit in the street.

Maybe you will be lucky and no one will bother you. Given how Muslims feel about dogs, I am sure its not allowed on the Corniche, don't know what the fine would be.

I was just down there yesterday. It seems as though there are certain areas with a sign that says no dogs and other areas that don't. I'm not sure if this means it applies to all areas of the corniche or just the ones that explicitly say so. Then again the police are the ones enforcing it and they may be ignorant as well.

I moved to a house in ALnasr st., but my neighbor is having a place besides my window, He uses this place for chicken, and house birds which makes a very bad smell, and dirt, Is that acceptable by law?

Nothing is more relaxing than flying like an Eagle in Heaven !!

It s not allowed. not allowed to take ur pets to the cornishe, not allowed to fish there, not allowed to swim there, not allowed to ride bicycle. and if the police catch u doin any, i think the fine is 600 QR. am sure bekoz we took the puppy with us when i was with my friend and the police stop us and ask us to take the dog away. honestly we didnt know that its not allowed and he explained to us the above mentioned.

I too have received verbal abuse off peeps living near me and me and my pup have been attacked off 2 dogs on the street behind mine! I am too scared to take him out on my own now...

You know its fine that some people do not like dogs but what the hell gives them the right to abuse the ones that do???

I have a dog too and walk her round the neighbourhood. Unfortunately I regularly get abuse from local boys, presumably for having a dog, although I try and keep out of the way. They even hooked up a trip wire once that got us!

I just LOVE the idea that the dog is walking you!!! I would love to be there if somebody walking a dog is approached and told off and uses that as a response... I bet that will take a while to sink in! Thank you for the good laugh!

just pretend as if the dog is walking you and no one will have any problem!

I don't think Corniche is off limits to dogs, but make sure the dog is with a leash..

I agree with you Alumnar, not a lot you can do!

... that we are not allowed to walk dogs on the Corniche. What harm can that do? Another minus point for this country, to add to many others already.

Its unfortunate but dogs are not allowed on the corniche and even other small parks in neighborhoods. Its not a dog friendly country! Also be careful if you are by a beach and you let a dog off leash chances are someone in a car will get close to it and steal it happened to friends of mine.

:) Brit. That's probabaly true but as far as I know dogs are not allowed in the Corniche, parks and other public places in Qatar. Most people who have dogs in Qatar walk them on isolated beaches and empty spaces near their houses. Please ask Xena/Chelsea/QAWS people about this. Dont get into trouble by walking them at places where they are not allowed.

"Ali Baba and 40 thieves" are now "Ali Baba and 30 thieves" ; 10 were laid off.

I beg to difer.. i have seen some real dogs at the corniche.. Ruffffffffffffffff!

Thanks for your comments so far guys. Just to let you know I always clean up after him and he does not bark at anyone. I would not trust any dog to be let off the lead... well not over here anyway so he will always be by my side :-)

I enjoy a walk down the Corniche and wanted my new dog to enjoy the same.

As long as you own the responsibility of the dog, there should not be a problem.

I think the corniche is off limits to dogs.

"Ali Baba and 40 thieves" are now "Ali Baba and 30 thieves" ; 10 were laid off.

since u have just adopted the pup,as jaredboy sugested of no barking/biting, teach the pup of not barking/biting in public places,avoid walking late evenings as lot of kids walking freely of all nationalities,so that some cranky parents object.

No problem mate, just be sure your dog is not barking or he will not bite someone.

I don't know about signs, but I have seen a couple of people walking their dogs there ..

just remember not to leave any doo-doo behind :)
