scalesntails 118 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Read somewhere that they're thinking of re-introducing the dog licence and giving the Local Council's the power to set the fee. Now if this is true it generally means it's a money making scheme for the LA and there is the possibility of the owner's being fined or the dog being removed if said licence isn't bought. Given how successful it was the first time round I doubt it will take off but if they're serious and they bring in a law to make it compulsory like a tv licence for instance....how many would buy one...a dog licence not a tv licence I have had a Dangerous wild animals license for many years and the price of that is set by the local council. They can only charge a fee for their costs however epending where you live in the UK this can range from about £60 to £3000. I also believe that the last dog license was stopped because the cost of administering it outweighed the revenue from it. I am against nearly everything that means new laws as I think we have far too many already. I would pay it as I would hate to lose my dogs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

littletimmy 71 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 I would pay it as I would hate to lose my dogs. This is not just having a go at you mate, but this about sums up everything that is wrong with this country. If everyone just told them to f**k off, there going to have fun rounding up the millions of dogs this country keeps. This is why unions where crushed. This is why hunting was banned. This is why the country is f****d, people sell their souls and jump through hoops. I won't pay for one, same as i've never paid a rod licence. Never have never will. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Very well said mate...but all they will have to do is remove a few dogs and prosecute a couple of folk and the others will fall into line Quote Link to post Share on other sites
