I was in the Netherlands a few weeks ago, my future mother in law told me that everyone over there has to pay a tax each year for every dog they have. If I'm not mistaken they charge you 70 euros for each dog you have. I think this is great, because people will think it twice before adopting a dog, and I believe that's why they have no strays roaming in their streets! They also neuter their pets, it's actually rare to meet someone who has a dog that isn't neutered (because they know if they get more dogs they will have to pay even more no taxes). I was wondering... what if they started doing the same here? Charging a tax for each dog you own? Would we have less strays? What do you think!
