Bottrop introduces strict rules for dog owners - fine threatens!

Bottrop, Deutschland - in Bottrop it gets serious for dog owners! A new regulation ensures that animal owners have to follow strict rules when walking with their dogs. If you fail to have at least an unused dog decorative bag, you can expect a warning money of 55 euros for the first time. Even worse: multiple violations can even lead to fines of up to 1,000 euros! Like Derwesten.de reports, the Bottrop Ordinnungsamt plans to raise increased controls to sensitize the new rule. This year, however, the dog owners are to be warned with flyers who provide information about the feces.

The new regulation is part of a more comprehensive legal framework, the State Dog Set (Lhundg NRW), which has been in force since January 1, 2003. This law aims to improve security in dealing with dogs and to minimize potential dangers in advance. bottrop.de explains that the Lhundg NRW distinguishes between small, large and permitted dogs. Special requirements are provided for large and dangerous breeds that require a registration of the dogs and the submission of evidence of expertise and liability insurance.

In addition to the fecal bag obligation, other restrictions also apply. In public areas, all dogs must be led on a leash to avoid dangers to humans and other animals. If someone violates these regulations, this can also result in legal consequences, which makes it clear how serious the city of Bottrop takes the regulations for dog owners.
