Every year, we produce a report looking at our dog control policies and practices and this year the results look promising.
There seems to be a more harmonious relationship between people and our canine population.
While the resident registered dog population has increased slightly, 12,577 compared to 12,439 last year, complaints about them have decreased.
In the past 12 months, there were 102 fewer complaints received compared to the year before.
The most notable reduction in problem areas were reports of wandering and barking dogs.
