The Northern Village of La Loche appears to be gearing up for a major cull of stray dogs.

On Saturday, it’s offering residents $10 per animal to catch and surrender local strays on Saturday.

A poster circulated by the village, located about 600 kilometres northwest of Saskatoon, says the dog surrender day is part of a larger plan for animal control, including a licencing bylaw for pet dogs that takes effect on Monday.
