The extension of the Dog Control Public Spaces Protection Orders in Salford

Salford City Council is proposing to extend the current Dog Control Public Spaces Protection Orders.

Salford City Council undertakes various engagement programs across the City. However even with all this engagement we continue to observe problems across the City.

Dog fouling is seen as one of the most offensive types of nuisance anti-social behaviour, affecting parks, sports fields, play areas, cemeteries and public realm across the city. Dog excrement is also a public health risk, with the potential to lead to blindness due to infection with Toxocaria canis.

Salford City Council is proposing to extend the current Dog Control Public Spaces Protection Orders for a further 3 years when the current orders expire in November under the Anti-social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014 to work alongside the engagement program to be used as an additional tool for partners to use in order to prevent or reduce ASB caused by the minority in the City which adversely affects both the residents of and visitors to the City.
