There have been some comments on UKB about this dogs and this video and the fact that no dogs are allowed a Woodwell.At the time, I was not aware of this ban as it was not documented in the guidebook - which is where I have normally seen the information on access restrictions. We spoke to a local and he said that there had been issues in the past, but it was not really documented anywhere.I would log into UKB but can't. Apologies for any issues which may have arisen from this and I will not be taking the dogs there in the future. It was a genuine mistake and not a blatant disregard for the rules as the comment on the video and in UKB suggests. I am not that kind of climber.
UPDATE: It appears the guidebook does state that no dogs are allowed. This was not read before going and for that I apologise. I love my dogs and try and take them with me everywhere, but if a crag says no dogs then I don't go or get them looked after like I did when I went to sheep pen in North Wales. It was a quick decision to go and therefore I didn't read the guide but was shown blocs rather than go through the guide. Be assured I won't be going again with the dogs but I stand by my comment that the sed person should have asked me first if I was aware rather then tar me with the image of being a climber who disregards rules. I clean up crags, I tell folk who do disregard the rules. I enjoy climbing and wouldn't knowing risk access.
she can't access UKB
Nothing wrong with the OP's post, however much she dislikes being called up for it. If you see someone breaking the rules the onus is not on you to go investigating how aware of them they were before you're allowed to post a thread reminding people of the rules!

Obviously reminding people of access status is not a bad thing, it's just when you state someone has ignored the rules before you know the facts. He did comment on her video and she replied and apologised.
Anyway, I think all that can be achieved from this thread has been now!
