GOOD DOGS GO GREEN THIS YEAR – REGISTER YOUR DOG NOW!

Dog tags are green this year. If you haven’t already, this is a friendly reminder to register your dog for the 2026/27 year. Reminders were sent on 29 May, and registrations were due on 1 July. If you haven't done it yet, please do so as soon as possible to avoid late fees.

If you’ve already completed the process but haven’t received your tag yet, rest assured – our customer experience team will be sending them out as soon as possible.

Dog registration is much more than just a tag. It helps keep our community safe and supports important services for dogs and humans. Your fee goes towards:

• Reuniting lost dogs with their owners
• Providing care for dogs at the pound
• Supporting animal control and safety
• Promoting responsible dog ownership

Let’s keep tails wagging and noses sniffing! Make sure your dog is wearing their green registration tag this year.
