After you pay you get a crummy sharp edged ghetto looking tag for "identification purposes". If you don't pay, they slap you with a $175 mom compliance fee. If you never get the rabies vax in the first place, they will never know you have a dog, and thus never send you a bill. unless of course you have a horrid neighbor who likes to complain about people.
I guess the idea is to tax those who create the need for dog pounds and dog catchers, but really they should be taxing CAT owners!!!!! By the way, in AZ it's only $17 for an altered dog, I think it's close to $100.00 for unaltered. The elderly get a tax break though, I can't wait!
