Helen Morgan, MP for North Shropshire, said:
"I am supporting the #FGTakeTheLead campaign as we head into a busy Easter weekend across our rural areas.
"²ÝÁñÉçÇø work hard to put food on the table and take care of our countryside. Here in Shropshire, nearly a fifth of people work in the agriculture sector, and 93% of our land is for agricultural use. Dogs off leads can cause real damage to livestock and so it's important to encourage responsible dog ownership, particularly on working farmland.
"The campaign has my full support, and I know that farmers across the country will be very grateful to see people taking the lead."
