Accessibility and Access Keys [4]

At the level of the towns and cities across Canada, the main concerns are the licensing and control of companion animals, mostly, of course, dogs and cats. It is through municipal bylaws that this is done and these can vary widely from one community to the next. The CFHS has collaborated in producing some guidelines for “enlightened” municipal bylaws, and in developing sample or model bylaws for the licensing and control of companion animals. These can be accessed by making a selection on the left. To learn about the municipal bylaws that exist in your community, you can contact your village or city councillor or your local SPCA or humane society.
