Hudson Canine Trivia

City clerk Tracy Delaney submitted her report for 2013 to the Common Council at the last night's Council meeting. The document, which is more than a half-inch thick, is an accounting of the year's financial activities in the city clerk's office. Among the many statistics were the number of dog licenses issued in 2013, which we assume represents a reasonably accurate census of Hudson's dog population.

• Exempt dogs (i.e. service dogs)    2
• Spayed female dogs                      118
• Unspayed female dogs                     6
• Neutered male dogs                      114
• Unneutered male dogs                   26
