Fact Check

According to Section 9 of the Responsible Animal Ownership bylaw, if a pet defecates anywhere other than the pet owner's property, the owner is required to immediately remove the animal waste.

Pet owners must also carry a suitable means of removing pet waste, such as a disposable bag, and must provide proof upon request of an Animal Control Officer.
