In Berlin, dog owners are required to pay a dog tax, which is a local expense tax. This tax is applied when dogs are kept for private purposes. The tax rate is 120 euros for the first dog and 180 euros for each additional dog in the household.<\/strong> There are exemptions available, including for guide dogs for the blind, assistance dogs for people in need, dogs from animal shelters, or dogs owned by individuals receiving certain social benefits.<\/p>

Owners must register their dog with the tax office within one month of getting the dog. Any changes, such as the loss or death of the dog, must also be reported. The dog tax is set annually and is due quarterly, with the option for advance payments.<\/p>

The law also mandates the exchange of information between the central dog registry and the tax office to ensure compliance with tax obligations. The dog tax law in Berlin aims to ensure a regulated taxation of dogs and contributes to public safety.<\/p>

For more forms and information on the dog tax, please visit the City of Berlin's website.<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

As a pet owner, you may unfortunately discover that there are people out there who deliberately intend to harm your beloved four-legged friends. Using sneaky methods, poisoned baits are placed in popular dog areas in Berlin, which can have deadly consequences for the animals. However, as a responsible dog owner, you can take steps to minimize the risk:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Previously, the Berlin police operated a poison bait radar on Facebook, which, however, has not been updated since 2022. To stay informed, joining WhatsApp groups that share location-specific information for dog owners is a good idea. Ask other dog owners about such groups during your next walk with your dog. Often, you can quickly learn about these groups through casual conversation.<\/p>

Additionally, we found a website that publishes current reports on poison baits. This site seems to provide timely information, so we recommend checking it out:<\/p>

There are dog trainers in Berlin who specialize in poison bait training. Starting such training early in dog education makes sense, so your dog doesn’t find everything on the ground interesting. If you’re looking for a dog school or a trainer to help protect your dog from consuming poison baits, „Anti-Giftk\u00f6der-Training“ is the right search term for you.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The signs of poisoning in a dog can vary and depend on the type of poison ingested. It's important to act quickly if you suspect your dog has eaten a poison bait. Here are some common symptoms to look out for:<\/p>
