Dog-Walking Etiquette

The city often receives complaints about dog poop and pee.
• Please have your dog go to the toilet at home before walks, or use a dog belly band or doggy diaper when out for a stroll.
• If your dog poops, always pick it up and take it home.

Bring a container of water when taking your dog for a walk. If your pet poops or pees, be sure to wash away the remaining waste with plenty of water.
