Dog meadow Friedrichsthal

Breeding & nesting season (orientation)

From 1 March to 30 June (breeding, birthing and rearing season), a leash is required in hunting districts, i.e. in forests and open countryside, unless your dog reliably stays on the path and you have it safely under control. Violations can be fined. Municipalities may have their own rules.

This is a simplified overview, not legal advice. For binding rules in 2026 where you live and walk your dog, contact your local authority (e.g. municipal public order office).
