Responsible Pet Ownership

Dog owners are responsible for:

  • Keeping pets securely on their property or leashed when off the property.
  • Ensuring pets are under the control of a responsible individual at all times.

Dog tags can help identify your pet if they become lost or stray from home.

For full details, please refer to By-law #22-76 regarding licensing, owner responsibilities, and penalties. For information about exotic animals, please visit our Animal Control page.
