To ensure your dog and others around them are safe, it is important to keep your pet under effective control.

Effective control means holding your dog by a leash that is no longer than 2 metres when you are in a public place such as parks, foreshores or residential areas. It is also essential that you are physically able to control your dog.

When you are at home, please ensure that your dog has adequate fencing and is not aggressive towards people or other animals through the fence, including livestock in rural areas.

For further information on responsible pet ownership please visit Council’s website.
