DOG LICENSES
Annual License Fees
December 1 through February 28: $7 for altered (spayed or
neutered); $20 for unaltered. For above dates, licenses are
available at the County Treasurer's Office, Animal Control Department,
local city or township offices and at many veterinarian offices.
March 1 through November
30: $40 for delinquent license issue. All licenses must be
purchased at Animal Control after March 1.
All dog licenses
are sold on an annual basis. Each year, ALL LICENSES EXPIRE ON DECEMBER
31.
As provided by state law,
all dogs must be licensed when they reach the age of four (4) months. When the age of four
months is reached, the owner then has 30 days to provide proof of age and
current rabies shot for their dog in order to purchase a license at the
regular $7 or $20 fee. Failure to purchase the license--at that
time--would result in the $40 delinquent license fee.
