In this episode, Carla and Kim dive into the challenges of leash laws and public dog policies. They explore why a “one-size-fits-all” approach doesn’t work for every dog, the potential role of designated off-lead areas, and the complications that councils and communities face in making these decisions. Along the way, they reflect on the Dangerous Dogs Act, share stories of real-world risks like long-line injuries, and discuss why better owner education and systemic change may be more effective than breed-specific rules. The conversation highlights the balance between safety, freedom, and responsibility in our shared public spaces.
