Animal control and dog tag

 

On this page:

DOG TAG AND REGISTER LIST

It is recommended that you register your dog on the Register list of Dogs and Owners and obtain an identification tag for your pet.

Please note that tag is only available for dogs. There is no identification-tag for cats or any other pets.

When your dog disappears, the Register list can greatly facilitate the search and tracking of your pet by the Officer of animal control and the police department.

It is important to know that a dog identification-tag is valid for the lifetime of the animal and also free  for the citizen of Deux-Montagnes.

For more information, contact the Public Works Department at 450 473-2796 option 1, during the opening hours :

Monday to Thursday from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

and Fridays from 8 a.m. to noon only.

ANIMAL CONTROL PROVIDER

The City of Deux-Montagnes does not currently have a service agreement for the choice of an animal controller for our region. In the meantime, a Register list of Dogs and Dog Owners is still available at the Public Works Department at 450 473-2796 ext. 1125.

LOST PETS, INJURED OR DEAD

If you find a pet that is sick, injured or dead, contact the Régie de police du Lac des Deux-Montagnes at 450 974-5300 to request a non-urgent visit of a Police Officer.

WILDLIFE ANIMAL ON OUR TERRITORY

Note that it is prohibited to capture, relocate or kill wildlife. They are protected under the Act respecting the conservation and development of wildlife.  This Act stipulates in  chapter 67  that anyone may kill or capture an animal that causes damage to property or relocated a wild animal for public interest purposes, except under conditions determined by regulation of the Minister.

Wild animals, such as white-tailed deer, raccoons, foxes or skunks, are therefore under the responsibility of the Ministère des Forêts, de la Faune et des Parcs (MFFP).
