ANIMAL CONTROL – DOGS
Municipality of Tweed By-Law No. 99-4 sets out the provisions for the licencing and regulating of dogs. The by-law outlines the regulations and fees for licencing dogs, the regulations for keeping of dogs, and the penalties for non-compliance with the by-law provisions.
A complete copy of this by-law is available on this website, from the Municipal Office, or from the Animal Control Officer. For more information please contact the Animal Control Officer at 613-478-3547.
LICENCING OF DOGS
• Buy your dog tag after January 2 each year for $15.00 each. After April 1 the cost goes up to $20.00 each.
• Dog licences expire December 31 each year.
• At the time of registration information about both the owner and the dog will be required.
• A record of dog tags is kept to make it easier to locate the owner of a lost dog.
• The dog tag must be securely fixed on the dog at all times.
• If a tag becomes lost or the information on it wears off a replacement tag can be obtained from the Municipal Office.
