Dog and cat licences are mandatory in the City of Welland. In fact, licences are mandatory in nearly every community across North America. Why? Because licences help keep pets and the communities they live in safe.
Since licensing your dogs and cats is a requirement, our goal is to make this process quick, simple, and valuable. Check out the ways you can license your pet below and feel good knowing that licensing revenue funds important initiatives helping to improve your community. To further support these efforts, DocuPet will always donate 20% of designer tag and product sales to our local Safe&Happy Fund partner in the City of Welland, Niagara SPCA and Humane Society.
Pet licences are required for all dogs and cats living in the City of Welland. They must be renewed every year prior to December 31st. You will receive reminders from us about upcoming licence expirations via mail, phone, and email.
