The Lancashire Wildlife Trust has issued a plea to dog owners to keep their pets on a lead - we want to know if you think the laws on dogs in public spaces are enough
Enjoying the great outdoors with your dog is a fantastic experience - it's a way for both you and your pet to stay active and walks are also a brilliant chance to bond with each other. However, while dog owners will likely agree that dogs really are a man's best friend - not everyone may be so fond of your four-legged friend.
We want to know if you think dogs should have to be kept on leads in public spaces including parks and beaches? Have your say in the comments section below. The Road Traffic Act 1998 also says that it’s a criminal offence for a dog to be on a ‘designated road’ if they’re not on a lead. This means that dogs are required to be kept on a lead while they’re crossing a road, and also while walking on a pavement beside a busy road to prevent them from darting out into traffic.
