Dog walking rules
While walking your dog, you must follow a few rules.
- Your dog must be walked on a leash (within built-up areas)
- Forest and natural areas are generally off-leash. Often, however, some areas are marked where dogs are allowed to run loose.
- Your dog may only run loose on a dog play area
- Your dog is not allowed in children's playgrounds, sandboxes, playing fields, cemeteries and in Juliana Park
- You clean up dog waste yourself. If you do not, you may be fined.
Guide or assistance dogs
Guide or assistance dogs (in training) do not have to be leashed. These dogs are also allowed in parks where "regular" dogs are not allowed.
