Dog registration fees support a range of services

Dog registration fees help to fund a range of services that are designed to help dogs, their owners and the wider community. This includes monitoring and enforcing the Dog Control Act 1996 and ensuring compliance with the Central Hawke’s Bay District Council’s Dog Control Policy and Bylaw, responding to and investigating complaints (including dog attacks on people, domestic pets, stock and wildlife, barking nuisance, roaming, lost and found dogs etc); providing and maintaining the pound facilities; patrolling public areas, reserves, parks, beaches, sports fields throughout Central Hawke's Bay; and funding education programmes, signage and promoting community safety.

There are additional costs associated with vehicles, facilities, administration, record keeping (including the updating of the National Dog Database) and staff costs.
