DOG LAW REFORM Submission to the Government during its Review of the Dog Control Act 2000 TOPIC: Fees by Locality Barking harassments and subsequent complaints are generally proportional to dog numbers and the number of dogs living in close proximity (dog density) where the anguish of one confined animal is readily picked up and exponentially broadcast by others. The Paper Noxious Barking elaborates further: The ubiquitous barking of numerous dogs has destroyed the rights of a great many people, and continues to impact negatively on public health. Recommended: 1. That the Registration Fee for each dog be proportional to the average density of the dog population in its area. |
