Because of this, reuniting a dog to its owner can take far longer, and can be a stressful time for both the furry friend and its family.We are reminding residents to keep their dogs safe by making sure they wear an ID tag.Under the Dog Act 1992, the legal requirements are:A dog must be licensed and microchipped.A dog must wear a collar with a name/ID tag (exemptions apply for some working dogs).Please share this information with your residents and direct them to the Blue Cross website for information and tips on keeping dogs safe.
