The Regional District
also provides contract
Pound services
and assistance as
requested for the Westbank First Nation reserve lands only. Services are
NOT provided for the Okanagan Indian Band IR # 7 lands in the Lake Country area.
The
Dog Regulation and Impounding Bylaw No. 366 is enforced on both a complaint
and proactive basis. This means that complaints will be reacted to on a priority
basis, however dogs at large will be impounded and other violations can be acted
upon when they are observed by the Bylaw Enforcement Officers. Please note that
the Bylaw is provided for convenience only and should not be considered the legal
or official document. Please consult the Regional District for the legal bylaw.
All dogs in the Central Okanagan must be licensed each calendar year, and must wear
their dog tags for identification.
