Working dogs are dogs used for herding or driving stock, security or pest control.
If your dog is a working dog, you can get a discount on your annual registration fee.
You need to sign a declaration that your dog is used for this purpose.
We will ask to see documentation when you register with us if your dog is an official security or pest control animal.
If your dog is used for herding or driving stock, we may ask to see your dog performing this function.
