When do I qualify for the Early Bird rate?
The Early Bird licensing rate applies to pet owners who licence their spayed or neutered dogs and cats between October 1 to December 31 prior to each renewal year.
Documented proof of spay/neuter is required for the discounted altered animal rate. This includes an official letter from your veterinarian or a receipt from the procedure.
The early bird rate also applies to:
- New Ponoka residents who move to the Town of Ponoka and own a dog and/or cat; and
- Residents who become first-time animal owners of a dog and/or cat.
