Help us care for The Lakes by following these rules for you and your dog to enjoy.

  • Keep them close: Using a short lead help to keep you dog from disturbing ground-nesting birds and farm animals. it is essential to use a short lead around sheep, but if cattle approach you, its best to let your dog go and call them back later when its safe to do so.
  • Pick up the poo: please always clear up after your dog, if you cannot find a bin nearby take the poo bags home with you. dog poo can be extremely harmful to wildlife and farm animals and can be a cause of miscarriages in cattle. 
  • Watch for signs: Keep an eye on local signs and notices wherever your walking. they’ll tell you if an area has a dog ban or if the path has been diverted or even if your in an area where dogs can be let off lead.
  • Stay on the ball: remember no everyone loves dogs and some fear them. and some dogs aren’t friendly, so make sure your dog doesn’t run uptown other people, children and dogs.
