It’s not just people who can cause problems in your community. Stray animals, dangerous pets, or animals fouling in public spaces can be a problem too.
What should you do?
If you know the owner, start by having a friendly chat about your concerns. Most people don’t realise their pet is causing a problem and will try to help. But if you feel scared or threatened, don’t put yourself at risk. Report it to us - call 0345 366 4404 or use our online form.
If you're worried about the wellbeing of an animal, contact the RSPCA. And if you think the animal is a stray, please report it to your local council.
What will we do?
We’ll look at all the information and check if tenancy rules are being broken. There’s lots we can do, depending on how serious the problem is including:
- Issue verbal and written warnings
- Arrange mediation or restorative justice
- Provide CCTV equipment for your home
- Take legal action
- Work with the local council or police for extra support
