Dog Registration

Dog Registration 

The Municipality of Leamington has a by-law for the registration and regulation of dogs.

The Municipality's Animal Control By-law requires that every owner of a dog register and licence their dog each year.

This simple process will help reunite you with your pet if it is lost. Please note that all dog tags are permanent for the lifespan of the dog and are not given out every year. A dog tag is only provided at the time of registration for newly registered dogs and are to be kept on your dog's collar at all times.

If you require a replacement tag please visit the Municipal Building at 111 Erie Street North, Leamington, ON N8H 2Z9. A fee of $7.00 will be applied.
