I see the tide has turned. Earlier post that proclaimed dogs do not cost the CG extra money. Have changed to the CG needs to implement more rules with a stricter more frequent enforcement policy.
That all sounds good on paper, however as WRVPO stated he's not running a prison camp. More rules,more enforcement equate to more cost more fees.
Before long he'll have to add per day pet fees to cover the additional cost of pets. ;)

If he's experiencing damage to his property perhaps there should be more patrol. How would he know it was a dog tied up to a tree that caused damage unless he saw a dog tied to the tree. Just as its not fair to charge a person that does not have a dog a fee, it's also not fair for responsible dog owners to have to pay more. Perhaps dog fees should be based on weight and size. Cause a little dog is likely to cause less damage than a big dog.
