Dog Fouling

Dog fouling is investigated since it is currently an offence for dog owners not to remove any faeces deposited. This legislation relates to all land within the District to which the public has access. The offence is punishable by payment of a fixed penalty fine or by summons. In some areas, signs are erected to alert dog walkers of their responsibilities. Instances of dog fouling can be reported on 01789 260837 (office hours).

We all share an interest in public health since these matters affect many of us. We consequently aim to respond effectively to all enquiries, requests for advice or investigations within 5 working days of receipt.
