Administration of the Responsible Pet Ownership Bylaw in Calgary includes addressing non-compliant behaviour, dog behaviour in off-leash parks, dogs in public spaces, and the reasonable number of pets in a household within City limits. Public safety and positive interactions between pets and the public are important. We want to understand what other actions we can take to enhance positive interactions, and promote safety, between pets and people.
