Town of Arborg By-law 15-2002 provides for the regulation and control of animals within the limits of the Town of Arborg.

It is important that pet owners understand their responsibilities under the By-Law and to the community that they live in. The provisions of the Animal Control By-Law are set forth to ensure that our community remain safe and aesthetically attractive. Many of these responsibilities are logical and require no extra effort upon the responsible pet owner. Some of these responsibilities include:

• Pets are not allowed to defecate on public or private property, if a pet does defecate on public or private property, the excrement will be removed immediately.
• No pet is allowed to leave the owner’s property unleashed, and must be under effective control. This provision applies to both cats, dogs and any other animal classed as a pet.
• No pet is allowed to damage public or private property; where a pet does damage property, the pet owner is responsible for the repair of that property.
• No pet is allowed to disturb the quiet of any resident.
• All dogs residing within the town must be licensed.

Note: Dog licenses are available at the Town office located at 337 River Road in Arborg.
