Yes, all dogs in Plummer Additional must be licensed each year by March 31st as regulated in the License, Regulate and Control Dogs By-Law 2002-17.

A dog tag is the best form of ID for your dog and plays a critical role in identifying your dog should it become lost or injured.

Dog tags can be purchased at the Township Office. Tags are $5 each for spayed/neutered dogs and $10 each for dogs that have not been spayed or neutered. Proof of rabies vaccination is required upon registration. The fees double after March 31st each year.

Once you have completed and submitted your application, and the Township has received payment, you will be provided the dog tag(s).  Please click on Dog Licence Application Form Options to access application form options.
