The issues of treatment of animals and cleaning after them by owners are regulated by the Law of Ukraine "On the Improvement of Settlements". Based on it, all local councils (city, village, village) have adopted their own, local Improvement Rules, which contain requirements and prohibitions. Each locality can set its own dog walking requirements and prohibitions.

The legislation of Ukraine stipulates that for walking dogs without muzzles and leashes (according to the list of dangerous breeds) or not in designated areas and for not cleaning up their excrement, law enforcement officers can issue a warning or issue a fine of 170-340 hryvnias. For officials - a fine of 340-850 hryvnias.

If the violation occurs repeatedly within a year, the fine increases to 340-510 hryvnias, and for officials to 510-1,020 hryvnias.

If, due to the violation, damage was caused to another person or his property, then the fine increases to 1,700-3,400 hryvnias with confiscation of the animal. For officials - 3,400-5,100 hryvnias with confiscation of the animal.
