wolfgirl Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Just read this, seems a bit excessive http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/auckland-dog-registration-cost-set-skyrocket-4742481 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Souff Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Can anyone tell me if this is an annual fee, or is it for lifetime registration of a dog? If it is for lifetime registration I don't think it is excessive, though it will come as a shock at first for the Aucklandites. It is probably on a par with NSW. If it is an annual fee, then hey, yes, that is really steep .... Souff would be asking for a council-paid dog walker to come with that package ;) Souff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emgem Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 There's more of a difference in fees between desexed and entire dogs in NSW. Desexed dogs are only $40 for lifetime registration but entire dogs are about $150. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandgrubber Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Anybody have registration costs for European countries on hand? I think, when I lived in Germany (20 years back) I was paying around $300/yr for registration for a speyed female. I think it fair that dog owners be asked to pay a good share of the dog control/management costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah well if that's the case they should police them and fine those who don't pay - and keep the fees down for those who do the right thing.

Like when I called to have a stray picked up and was told they don't come out after 7pm......so that's what I pay for??? Animal management my arse. Not to mention there is not one dog park in my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
