  • Regina Animal Bylaw Updates

    With 14,000 cat and dog licences issued by the City of Regina each year, it's important to have regulations that support a responsible and respectful community for both residents and pets.

    Across Canada, municipalities have been modernizing their animal bylaws to address concerns related to aggressive/dangerous dogs, enhanced enforcement measures, animal wellness and owner responsibilities. The Animal Bylaw is being reviewed to identify potential amendments. The Bylaw updates will be presented to Council for consideration and approval.

    City Administration seeks to consult with stakeholders and the broader community to develop updated regulations.
