Rules about where dogs must be kept on a lead in Preston - and the places in the city from which they are banned altogether - have been renewed for another three years.
However, the organisation did express concern over the exclusion of dogs from areas beyond play areas or enclosed games facilities. It also said that council officers with the power to order owners to put their dog on a lead should be familiar with canine behaviour in order to determine whether restraining them was really necessary.
The Kennel Club said that a dog could be considered a nuisance simply by virtue of the fact that some people “do not like” them. Punishment for a breach of a PSPO can range from an on-the-spot fixed penalty notice of £100 to a fine of up to £1,000 if the matter goes to court. Commenting after the orders were renewed, Preston City Council's cabinet member for planning and regulatory David Borrow, said: “We know the majority of our dog owners are responsible, but these orders provide us with powers to take enforcement action for fouling, as well as providing areas where dogs should be on leads or are excluded for public health reasons or to safeguard wildlife in our nature reserves.
