Buy Your 2026 Dog Tag Now

We are pleased to advise that the 2026 City of Kenora dog licence is now available for purchase.

In accordance with By-law No.150-2010, all dog owners are required to license their dog annually no later than March 31 of each year, or within seven days of becoming a dog owner. Licensing helps ensure the safety of pets and supports responsible ownership within our community.

If a dog is picked up by a By-law Enforcement Officer and is wearing a valid City of Kenora dog tag, every effort will be made to return the dog home at no cost. If the officer is unable to return the dog and the owner is not home, a notification will be left and the dog will be transported to the pound. Pound fees apply to all impounded animals, and the free ride home incentive does not apply to repeat occurrences.

Licences may be purchased in person at City Hall during regular business hours or complete the online form. For assistance, please contact Customer Service at 807-467-2000.

If you no longer have the dog previously registered or have acquired a new dog, please contact us so our records can be updated accordingly.

Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us keep Kenora a safe and pet-friendly community.
