Currently in Rehoboth Beach, dogs are not allowed to be on the beach or boardwalk from May 1st throughout September 30th. Recently on the city's Reach Our Rehoboth website, a poll was uploaded about if dogs should be allowed on the beach or boardwalk during non-peak hours of the summer. According to the city, lots of dog owners have requested a change to the rule, so this is a "hot topic" in the area.
