akldogs

akldogs contains data relating to dogs and their management in Auckland. Data is sourced from Auckland Council’s Animal Management division via an official information request (#8140017948). The goal is to make this data more accessible to R users.

• registration: raw data for each dog known to Animal Management between financial years 2021-2025.
• impounds: raw data for each impound event between financial years 2022-2024.
• rfs: raw data for each request for service between financial years 2020-2025.
• locality: a helper table to standardise the relationship between suburbs, local boards, and regions reported in the datasets provided by Animal Management.
• breeds: a helper table to standardise breed names for primary breeds within registration and impounds, prioritising the name in registration.

Cleaned versions of the datasets, as they appear in the package, can also be found in CSV format in the data-raw folder.
