- Where and when dogs can be exercised off their leash
- Places dogs aren’t allowed
- Where you can take your dog on the Hauraki Rail Trail
- Number of dogs allowed to be kept
- Fencing requirements for dangerous dogs
- Roaming, barking or howling dogs
- Picking up your dog’s droppings
- Impounding and neutering of dogs
