Caring for your dog in Leiden

Leiden-specific tips every dog owner should know

Historic Centre Crowds

Leiden's narrow streets can be busy, especially on market days. Sitters should use quieter side streets for walks.

Canal Safety

Leiden has many open canals without barriers. Keep dogs leashed near waterways in the centre.

Dune Conservation

Dogs must be kept on leads in protected dune areas near Leiden. Check signage at entry points.
