Dog Licence


In the 1950s and 1960s, you had to have a dog licence if you had a dog. Not sure when it ended but it seemed like a good idea then and so it still seems to me now. The price that I remember from the mid 50s was 7s 6d - 7 shillings and 6 pence which I guess equates to about £10 nowadays - not a large sum but it forced and acknowledgement of responsibility.  The licence had to be renewed annually. Good idea, bring it back!
