Dog owners in Chichester could see rules extended for another three years.
A consultation will get underway next month to look at renewing dog control orders.
They include requirements to pick up dog mess, keep dogs under control, and avoid designated exclusion zones.
Tom Day, Divisional Manager for Environment and Health Protection, says: "We want to make sure that everyone — with or without dogs — can safely enjoy the many beautiful public spaces we have in our district.
“We know that most dog owners are responsible, but unfortunately some people do not pick up after their dog or do not keep their dog under proper control. This Public Space Protection Order means we can tackle these issues, which can negatively affect our communities and wildlife, and spoil people’s enjoyment of our beaches and open spaces, while also encouraging responsible dog ownership. This is why we are proposing to renew the order for a further three years, with some proposed additions.
“This consultation is a chance for people to share their thoughts on our proposals, and we are keen to hear a wide range of views. It takes just 5 to 10 minutes to complete our quick survey, and people can choose to respond only to the aspects that interest them.”
The consultation will go live on Friday 8 May and will close at 5pm on Friday 5 June 2026. People will be able to take part at https://app.snapsea.io/p/c/chichester/letstalkdogs
