Philly Paw Patrol: Council Curbs Dogs & Their Poop from Parks

from City Cast Philly · host City Cast

Philly loves its dogs, but there’s a plan to make some parks, playgrounds and rec centers  “animal-free zones.” City Council passed a bill that would fine owners $2,000 if their dog is in a public park – whether on a leash or not. Host Trenae Nuri, who isn’t a dog owner, speaks with Johnny Goodtimes, a Philly dog owner and City Cast Philly contributor, about city canines, dog parks, and whether politicians are barking up the wrong tree.  Check out these eight dog parks.  Get Philly news & events in your inbox with our newsletter: Hey Philly Call or text us: 215-259-8170 We’re also on Instagram: @citycastphilly Learn more about the sponsors of this episode: Fitler Club Eastern State Penitentiary Jeff D'Ambrosio Auto Group Philadelphia Canoe Club Advertise on the podcast or in the newsletter: citycast.fm/advertise
