Background

Encourage responsible ownership and prevent impulse purchases. Reduce public nuisances like barking and dog fights. Protect parks, wildlife, and public spaces from damage. Decrease the strain on animal shelters and local services.

Additional details

Dogs are lovely companions for some, but the increasing number of dogs in our communities is causing serious problems. Barking, dog waste, damaged parks, and stray animals are all issues that affect everyone.
