Dog Control
The Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) encourages responsible pet ownership through licensing, public education and enforcement.
Bylaw No. 376 requires all dog owners living in Halfmoon Bay, Roberts Creek, Elphinstone, mainland of West Howe Sound (and Keats Island), and the shíshálh Nation Government District to register, number and license their dog(s) over the age of three months by January 31 of each year.
The Town of Gibsons and the District of Sechelt provide dog control services to citizens living in those municipalities.
