Paw Patrol to kick off next month
A SIX-month inspection program aimed at finding dogs that are not registered in the Tablelands Regional Council area will get underway next month.
Dog registration payments were due on 30 June and the council will conduct the inspection program to check for compliance.
“If you haven’t paid your annual dog registration then you need to come and see us before we see you,” Mayor Rod Marti said.
“We’ll be out and about on Paw Patrol from Friday 1 August to Sunday 1 February 2026 and will be checking that dogs are registered and microchipped.
“We’ll help owners with the registration application if we find unregistered dogs or leave a card and come back later if no-one is home.
“We hope we don’t have to issue warning letters – we’d much rather all dogs are microchipped and registered so we can reunite them with owners as quickly as possible if they go missing.”
Dog owners are urged to contact the council if they didn’t receive a renewal notice.
