What do I do about
an aggressive dog, which is preventing use of a path?
If you wish to report an aggressive dog please complete the service
request form with all the relevant details. The problem will be forwarded
to our dog
warden unit.
Can bulls be kept in a
field with a public right of way through?
No - If the bull is older than 10 months old, or if it is
of a dairy breed mixed with cows, then it cannot be kept in a field with
a public right of way through it.
There is an aggressive horse,
or other animal in the field with a public right of way through it - can
something be done?
A prosecution can be brought against a farmer when they knowingly place
a dangerous animal in a field with a public right of way. Please report
any incidents to us by completing the service
request form.
