What to do if your dog dies
Page Content
What you need to let us know
To update our records that your dog has died, we need:
- your dog’s name and date of death
- your dog's registration number or tag number.
Our tip
Refunds are calculated based on the number of full months remaining in the registration year. We count this from the date we receive your request, not from the date the dog died.
By post
Post all the documents to:
Animal Management Administration
Auckland Council
Private Bag 92300
Auckland 1142
If you would like a refund of your dog's registration fee, include the Request a refund of dog registration fee form:
In person
Bring all the documents to one of our
libraries with council services.
