When outdoors in public spaces please keep your dog on a leash. Remember to take bags with you to pick up your dog's poop and help keep our walkways and green spaces clean.
Those who want to let their dog run free can do so in the designated off-leash areas.
A dog licence is required once your pup is four months old. See below for more information.
