LOS ANGELES – Cash-strapped Los Angeles is going to the dogs — literally.
The City Council voted Tuesday to have two departments share information in 
order to track down people who haven't licensed their pets.
Council President Eric Garcetti estimates two-thirds of the city's dogs are 
unlicensed. Licenses cost $15 for a sterilized dog and $100 for an unaltered 
pet.
Getting all dogs licensed would mean at least an additional $3.6 million in 
fees to the city.
The Department of Animal Services has eight full-time people whose job is to 
find and license dogs. The Department of Water and Power keeps a meter-reader 
database of homes with dogs. The council ordered the departments to coordinate 
to find the pooches.
