Toronto aims to designate sites for commercial dog walkers
City council approved a two part motion to set criteria and a listed sites plan for commercial dog walkers across Toronto. Ramsden Park in Rosedale is to be off limits for walkers amid complaints of noise and congestion while staff draft rules and educate owners.
