Doggone unhappy with the new rules


THE Batu Gajah District Council (MDBG) has issued new regulations taking effect from February 2017 on applications for a dog licence.

Some of the regulations are absurd. For example, the applicant must produce a medical report on the health of the dog and this must be signed by a veterinary surgeon. Proof that the immediate neighbours are okay with having the dog around and photographs of the owner, the dog, the house premises, kennel and etc. must also be provided. Failure to apply for a dog licence will incur a stiff fine
