24 July 2018

All dogs over the age of three months must be registered - and the final date for paying your dog registration without a penalty is Tuesday 31 July 2018.

Online Dog Services are available on the Council’s website. Go to www.marlborough.govt.nz/Services/Animals/Dog-Registration/Online-Dog-Services

Credit card payment is the only online payment option and transaction fees apply. Part payments cannot be accepted.

Dogs can also be registered by internet banking direct credit, telebanking, by post or in person at Picton Service Centre, 2 Dublin Street or at Animal Control, 56 Main Street, Blenheim.

A late registration penalty of 50% is applied to every dog over the age of three months which has not been registered on or before 31 July 2018.

Registering your dog is cheaper than getting a fine for not registering it. The fine for an unregistered dog is $300.

Phone Animal Control on 03 520 9033 or email animalcontrol@xtra.co.nz if you have any queries.
