Dog inspection week in Bad Dürkheim: cleanliness and safety in focus!
In Bad Dürkheim, the focus is on treating our four-legged friends responsibly. With a dog control week, the city's municipal enforcement service (KVD) impressively demonstrated how important it is to comply with dog ownership regulations. A total of 41 dog owners were checked - including 27 from Bad Dürkheim and 14 from the surrounding area. The good news: no violations were found during the inspections.
Nevertheless, in two cases there was evidence of the applicable leash requirement. This regulation, anchored in the Hazard Prevention Ordinance, ensures the safety of people and animals and requires dog owners to keep their four-legged friends on a leash in certain areas. The city also reminds you that dog droppings must be cleaned up immediately. Ultimately, cleanliness in public spaces should be guaranteed.
Dog owner obligations in view
Dog Inspection Week also highlights how important the obligations of dog owners are. In Germany there are numerous laws and regulations that regulate the coexistence of people and dogs. This includes the Animal Protection Act, which requires animals to be kept in a species-appropriate manner. In addition to paying a dog tax, the basic obligations include providing food, water and veterinary care. These aspects not only guarantee the well-being of the animals, but also relieve pressure on community life.
As petolo.de informs, dog owners can also expect serious consequences if they do not take their duties seriously. Depending on the violation, you may face fines or even prison sentences. The responsibility of the owners is particularly important here: For example, they must ensure that their dogs do not cause any damage and always clean up dog waste immediately. Breaches of duty can result in fines - in some cases up to 150 euros for failing to remove dog feces. Hard, but necessary to promote coexistence.
Dog taxes and more
In addition to the responsibility towards their own dog, owners also have to keep financial aspects in mind. The amount of the dog tax varies from municipality to municipality and can range between 50 and 200 euros for the first dog, depending on local regulations. Increased taxes may also be due for dog breeds that are classified as dangerous. Hundekratie.de points out that non-payment of the dog tax can lead to reminder fees and, in the worst case, to the dog being forced to surrender.
You should not forget to register the dog in the new hometown, as registration is usually required within two to four weeks. Anyone who fulfills this obligation not only protects themselves from penalties, but can also ensure that all legal requirements are met.
With its regular inspections, the city of Bad Dürkheim shows how important it is to be considerate between dog owners and non-dog owners. Dog Control Week is a step in the right direction to promote harmonious coexistence. We wish dog owners good luck and lots of fun with their animal friends!
