New dog control measures could be introduced at public spaces across the district.

Dogs may be banned from fenced-in play areas, enclosed skate parks and multi-use games areas.

Dog owners might have to keep their animal on a lead in cemeteries and if told to do so by an authorised officer such as a council warden or police community support officer.

Now Bradford Council is asking the public for its views on the proposals.

A questionnaire has been set-up for people to say where dogs should be on a lead or prohibited altogether.

Parish and town councils, housing associations and companies will also be consulted. Dog control measures already introduced by the council last year include one relating to fouling, applying to all open land with public access.

Coun Andrew Thornton, executive member for environment, sport and sustainability, said: “We want to know what the public thinks of these new wider-ranging options.

“I would urge people to have a look at the questionnaire, fill it in and help us to find the best way forward.”
