Secure your property and prevent roaming
Ways to control your dog on private property include using fencing or kennels. Alternatively, you can chain up your dog or leave it indoors. Always put adequate water and food nearby.
Keep the access way from the street to your front door clear to make sure your dog doesn't threaten anyone.
In general, fences should be at least 1.2 metres high. Make sure there aren't any holes or weak points where your dog can escape.
Don't allow your dog to wander off your property. You may be fined for letting your dog roam.
