Dog Licensing

Dog licensing

Dog licenses and dog tags are important

They are also the law

A lost dog with a tag can quickly be returned to owners. Proof of rabies vaccination is required to purchase a license which protects communities from the spread of rabies. Licenses are generally required for all dogs over 3 months of age.
