Each year, the City sends notices to dog owners in early December for renewal of their dog licence(s).
A dog licence helps protect your pet by providing an easy-to-identify dog tag and registration with the Port Alberni SPCA. Any dog over the age of six months must have a valid licence for the current calendar year. Dog licences must be purchased at City Hall with a licence fee of $30.00 for spayed/neutered dogs and $45.00 for unspayed/unneutered dogs. 10% of the fees collected for Dog Licensing goes back to the local SPCA in support of their spay/neuter programs.
