With the nicer weather ahead, many residents of Aurora will be hitting up the trails to enjoy the great outdoors with their furry companions.
The Town of Aurora would like to remind residents that dogs must be leashed at all times when outside, whether you’re tending to your garden, working in your yard, or taking a leisurely stroll. While it’s natural to believe that your pet is well-behaved and friendly, letting them roam free can lead to unexpected and potentially hazardous situations for other dogs and their owners. By keeping your dog leashed, you have better control over their actions, allowing you to swiftly remove them from any potentially risky encounters.
Walking your dog isn’t just about enjoying the fresh air; it also comes with responsibilities, including proper waste management. Don’t forget to bring along waste bags during your walks and ensure you promptly clean up after your furry friend. Whether you dispose of the waste at home, in designated dog waste containers in parks and trails, or in the green bin, it’s essential to clean it up to preserve the beauty of our shared outdoor spaces.
So, as you embark on your outdoor adventures on our beautiful trails with your four-legged companions, remember to leash your dog, pack those waste bags, and let’s make this season of outdoor exploration a memorable and responsible one for everyone in our community.
