Dog walking on the Corniche?
Can anyone please help?
I adopted a pup from Qaws on friday after the big fire and took him down the Corniche last night with my family for a lovely walk. We could not see any signs not to walk the dog but somehow felt out of place doing it!
Can someone please tell me if it is okay to walk dogs there as I do not want to offend anyone.
Many thanks,

Barking is instinct ...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.

Thanks for your comments so ...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.

:) Brit. That's probabaly ...:) 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.

Not allowed ...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.

How sad... ...... 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.

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

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???

NOT ALLOWED!! ...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.

Eagle_of_Heaven ...Are u serious about fishing, bcoz sometimes I see men fishing there after 12 am

I was just down there ...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.
Eve said
Maybe you will be lucky ...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.
fedupbrit said
Don't bother ...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.
