    Our Mission

    Bay of Islands Dog Owners Group will advocate for the BOI dogs whose rights are currently under threat from the proposed draconian draft FNDC Dog Control Bylaws and Dog Policy.

    We will provide a platform from which dog lovers can learn from each other, learn how best to encourage community change, and lobby the Council. Our Council needs to genuinely listen to the views of both resident, and visiting, BOI dog lovers. We want to encourage those who love dogs to live in, and visit, our beautiful region.

    Join Our Group

    If you live, work or holiday in the Far North, join our lobby group on Facebook: The BOI Watchdogs

    Our goals are (i) to stop passage of the current draft policy and bylaws, (ii) to encourage proper and thorough consultation, and (iii) to ensure that Council develops a new policy and bylaws which are inclusive, kind, and positive.
