Forgetful pet owners in Winnipeg could soon be dogged by a new fee.
The city’s animal services branch is recommending a new $4 charge for every month a licence renewal is late.
The fee would be capped at $20, and applies to cats and dogs.
Right now pet owners face a $250 fine for a lapsed licence.
A report at city hall says 48,000 dogs and 22,000 cats are currently registered.
