Dog walking is one of the most popular activities within the LSCR,

and also one of the most challenging issues.

Your cooperation in following these guidelines will help

guarantee the LSCR remains a “dog-friendly” environment.

Dog walking etiquetteAs a dog owner, it is your responsibility to:

Carry a collar and leash for •each dog at all times.

Immediately leash your dog •upon approaching a horse.

Pick up and dispose •of your dog’s droppings in the bins provided.

Not be accompanied by more •than three dogs at a time.

Keep your dog under control at all times.•

What is “under control”?

Your dog is under control when:

Your dog is within 10 metres •of you at all times.

Your dog returns to you immediately •when called.

Your dog is not annoying, harassing, •chasing, or attacking any other person or animal.

Why are dogs allowed only in certain areas?Metro Vancouver implemented a dog management strategy within the LSCR in the 2003 management plan.

This plan was developed through public consultation and resulted in the establishment of three zones within the landbase. As additional trails are established, opportunities for dog access will be evaluated.

Under Control / Leash Optional A network of wide trails south of Rice Lake Gaet provide areas where dogs are permitted off-leash as long as they are “under control.”

On Leash Dogs must be on leash in areas of high public use and near roads with vehicular traffic.

No Dogs Dogs have been excluded from narrow winding trails, environmentally-protected areas, and on trails set aside for visitors who prefer not to encounter dogs.

Please refer to the map inside this brochure for information the zoned trails.

Visitor safety remains the highest priority in managing dogs.
