Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the most common questions we get about licensing in the Town of Ingersoll.
Effective January 1, 2026, you are no longer required to purchase a dog tag from the Town of Ingersoll. The requirement of pet owners to identify their dog will now be the responsibility of the pet owner. Each owner is to obtain their own tag with owner contact information clearly displayed, or purchase a microchip for permanent identification of their dog.
Barking dogs are an annoyance and a nuisance. Barking falls under the Noise By-Law which is enforced by the O.P.P.
If you are registered as a dog owner and no longer have a dog, PLEASE notify the Town Office of the change.
