Hey, you can all come back now. It's legal!
We won the 'Hoornseplas thing'..! Well, at least most of it.
From today we can run free again in the Hoornseplas area, but only on weekdays.
On Saturdays and Sundays we still have to go on a leash here.
So we'll probably just stay away in the weekends.
This was the best we could hope for. It feels like victory.
The management of this recreational area had secretly decided that dogs could never run free and play in the water again.
They are definitely not dog humans. But thanks to a big campaign their decision was changed last night by the board.

It was time for some good news!
