Rural dog owners to get $20 discount
Taupō District Council is providing pet dog owners in rural areas with a $20 discount (or refund, if already paid) on their dog registration costs.
The decision was made on Tuesday in response to a large number of complaints about the increase from $25 to $85 (the registration cost paid by urban owners.
Rural dog owners -- what do you think about the $20 refund?
Pretty sweet deal? Happy to be heard? Or do you feel the cost, even at $65, is still unfair, given dog control costs are largely incurred by dogs in urban areas?
Please let us know :)
