Under the Control of Dogs Act  and associated regulations every dog owner is responsible for ensuring that each of their dogs is:

• licenced
• identifiable - wears a collar with name & address of owner attached
• under control at all times

Dog Licences:

• Cost €12.70 per dog
• Are valid for 1 year
