NICOSIA: Dogs are to get a beach of their own on the sun-kissed Mediterranean island of Cyprus.
Dogs are strictly prohibited from the holiday island s shoreline to keep the beaches clean for bathers, but Cypriot authorities have decided enough of the dog s life.
They are looking for suitable beaches where people and their pets can enjoy the sun and sea without falling foul of other beachgoers.
The Ombudsman, a commissioner usually tasked with upholding human rights, recommended to authorities last year that dogs should get their own bathing space, the daily Phileleftheros reported.
