Fragile Do Not Bend Jan 2021 9:56pm, 4 Jan 2021 7,618 posts	0 Fragile Do Not Bend Thankfully I only have one house near enough to potentially see how many times I go out, and they aren’t the curtain-twitcher sort.

Dave A Jan 2021 10:03pm, 4 Jan 2021 22,756 posts	0 Dave A Animal care is referenced. What, to you, constitutes animal care/welfare.
geordiegirl Jan 2021 10:04pm, 4 Jan 2021 12,937 posts	0 geordiegirl No I couldn’t neither. Last time you definitely could do both my brother & sil have a livery yard and they had to check with local police and they confirmed looking after animals Including walking dogs was additional to your personal daily exercise that was not time constrained.
