Thorold has a new way to license dogs.
The city has announced the launch of a new dog licensing program, which for the first time, allows dog owners to buy their licence online at thorold.docupet.com.
Officials say the online program provides a more accessible and convenient way to license as well as ensure that licensed dogs who become lost find their way home.
The tag is now connected to a public website (thorold.docupet.com) that engages the whole community to reunite lost pets with their owners quickly and safely.
Details of the licensing profiles can be private or shared, depending on how owners choose to set up their profile.
Licences for 2017 can be purchased online at thorold.docupet.com or in person at the City of Thorold.
