Dog Licensing

Owning a pet has many proven health benefits including physical, mental and emotional improvements for the owner; however, pet ownership also comes with much responsibility.

The Dog Enforcement Bylaw regulates many aspects of dog ownership and certain responsibilities of dog owners; it also helps Municipal Enforcement work with pet owners to ensure that dogs, cats, their owners, and the neighbors live together harmoniously and safely.

Dog Licensing


Any dog over the age of 3 months that takes up residence in Foam Lake must be licensed within 7 days of moving to the Town. Dogs must also have up to date rabies vaccinations every 3 years.

It is also important to keep your dog owner information up to date with the Town so we can reunite you and your dog should he/she escape from your property. If you will be moving out of Foam Lake, making a move to a new home in Foam Lake, or if your dog passes away, please report this information to the Town so we can update our records accordingly.

Applying for a New Dog License

Fill out a Dog License Form and send to reception@foamlake.com. Please be sure to provide us with a photo of your pet along with your application. Payment can be made via cheque, money order, or cash. In some circumstances, we may accept e-transfers. Please contact the Chief Administrative Officer to discuss your options for payment.
