County licensing Do yall license your dog or dogs? with your county? I have never really heard about it and was wondering how many people actually do it and stuff. |
Tbh, I never really heard much about it either until recently. Jackson isn't registered with the county. Maybe he should be, I don't know. We've always lived in rural areas, not in neighborhoods. It's not something that seems to be regulated. |
Max and Teddy are licensed. It's required in our county and the vet sends papers directly to the county offices when they have their rabies shots. Then we have to make sure to pay $10 for each. |
Yep, required here as well... |
Its required here too, along with microchips. My vet handles that. |
Don't know if it's required or not. I've never done it. |
Licensing is required here, we even got a letter from the City of San Jose saying we had to do it after P-Nut got his first rabies shot. I believe it's $35/yr per dog if they're fixed. And we can only have 2 dogs (unless living on acreage, in which case the limit is 3). I never knew that, just read it. |

Yep we are required to be licensed and so we are. |
It's required in my town as well. Just got the renewal notice too. |
I don't do it because it upsets me that cats are not required to be licensed. They are pets and family members as well as dogs. |
We have the same thing- if you get your dog a rabies vaccine the vet reports it t the county.- I knew I got the bill, 35$ for a year mby 65$ for three?- kinda Forgot about it, got the 100$ county fine notice (oops!) called up within the ten day grace period and paid the license fee, felt grateful for my grace (right before Christmas). I think they require it for cats in our area too - portland oregon- but I think there are a lot less people vaccinating and vetting their cats so it is inevitably less regulated. |
Yes. Playing with fire if you don't... It is illegal not to in most areas. If any kind of city/county/state rabies license is available that means it is not just a suggestion. Our county requires it and both dogs are kicensed. the city here requires it too, but I haven't gotten around to that yet. Not nearly as converned for that one. Some vets send the info to the county and others don't (probably varies by area ). It is generally up to the owner, though. The piece of paper the vet prints out for you after vaccination with tgeir siggy is supposed to be sent to the powers that by with a check. I used to skip it too. But there are some extreme fines in certain counties and cities. Additionally, if pup is involved in any incident where authorities question rabies vaccination you don't want to be caught without it or your pups could suffer for it. |
My city doesn't do it. |
My town requires it, but we live just on the outside of city limits. I licensed my dogs the first year. I don't license them anymore. |
Both of mine are licensed yearly (12.00 for neutered or spayed so you catch a break there) and we just got notice. You have to provide proof of current rabies vaccine to get your tags. Before bubba and sissy we had a bichon that got out when the meter reader left the gate open (needless to stay the gate has been padlocked ever since). Anyhow we searched for him for hours and couldn't find him. We had called the police and reported him missing. When we finally got home there was a message on our answering machine from the police and the man in the liquor store two blocks down saying they had found him and were keeping him in the store over night because they had to close. He gave him crackers and water. We picked him up the next morning. I don't know if it was the id tag or the license but we got him home. My husband joked that he had a drinking problem and just went to the liquor store to store up. |
Thanks guys I think I will go ahead and do it, its only $5.00. None of our vets around here say anything about it or send anything in about it. She already wears two tags does she have to wear the tag? |
Everywhere I've ever lived they required it and we always do it, I know many people ignore it, but I encourage people to buy their licenses, because it does pay for animal control in your town and they do provide some very necessary services and also help reunite pets and owners. |

Though I admit I have overlooked the required registration...occasionally, I do believe one should. Beyond the requirement, those funds would contribute to the Animal Control function, which need all the support they can get. I have Collars on my guys full time. They are only used to hold the Rab Tag, EID info, my contact information and Bells. The Bells are a cheep way of keeping from squashing a toe. (theirs not mine) :biggrin: |

It's required in our county with a copy of proof of rabies vaccine. It's not a huge fee if dogs are spayed/neutered, it does cost more for intact dogs. |
I don't have a dog yet, but yes there is dog licencing in the county I live in. |
It is required here, but not enforced, best I can tell. Huey is licensed with the county, just because. It's just another form of identification, as far as I'm concerned, and the more, the better. I didn't realize that the county license supported the local animal control, but that is another great reason to do it. Our County Animal control has helped us in the past with issues with the next door neighbor... |
It's a great idea to license your dog, here you get a tag with it and you have to renew the license every year with a rabies shot. It's also great to microchip your dog. I just went into the shelter yesterday and there were many stray dogs and you can tell that they were taken care of but there is no way to return them to their owner otherwise. I have to wait 3 days and if he is not claimed I will have my Yorkie. |

I've never gotten anything about county licensing with Jackson's rabies shot/tag. He's had 3 in his lifetime now (6 months, 1 year and 3). |
My dogs are licensed every year by the county.They do accept 3 year rabies you just have to send in the vet receipt and your $10. We used to get a different shape/color tag every year ,but now they just renew it on their computer system and you keep the old tag. I keep the tag on their harnesses for when they are out (they wear little collars with ID around the house). Animal control is very responsive and I am happy to support them! |
