Dog owner Ms. Lin told this newspaper that she believed that the decision exploited the rights of dog owners and was worried that some people would continue to “arbitrarily build” more measures that are detrimental to dogs.

Many people moved into this housing estate after seeing that the deeds allowed them to keep dogs. But now there is a dog-free space.” She admitted that she had been unreasonably discriminated against by some people who hated dogs when she came in and out, and believed that the relevant measures must be withdrawn immediately.
