Last call for dog rego, microchipping
DOG registration payments are due at the end of June, with Tablelands Regional Council Mayor Rod Marti saying registration and microchipping are important components to being a responsible dog owner.
“All dogs in the TRC region must be registered and microchipped, and renewals for registration have been posted to dog owners,” he said.
“Your dog’s first registration is free so there’s no excuse, and if you registered your dog since Tuesday 1 April 2025, your registration remains current until Thursday 30 June 2026.
“It’s also important to ensure your dog’s registration and microchipping details are up to date.
“When it comes to registration, we need to know about any changes including where the dog is kept, desexing status (it’s cheaper if your dog is desexed), ownership and postal address.
“Microchipping details are important too – check the details associated with your pet’s microchip at Pet Address (petaddress.com.au) where you’ll be directed to the database that holds your pet’s details.
“Your vet can scan your pet if you don’t know your microchip number.”
