- Licenses may be purchased for 1, 2 or 3 years as long as the rabies vaccination is valid for the same period. Rabies laws state that the license term cannot exceed the rabies expiration date.
- Senior Discount Proof of senior status must be enclosed.
- Service dogs must be licensed in person at the Solano County Animal Shelter.
The cost for licensing unaltered or fertile pets is higher than that for licensing spayed or neutered pets in order to promote sterilization and to reduce pet overpopulation and starvation.

Due Date
Payment for your license is due within: 30 days of ownership of the dog, 30 days of a puppy receiving the rabies vaccination (minimum 4 months of age), or 30 days of becoming a new resident of Solano County. If you are renewing a Solano County license, your payment is due within 30 days after the expiration date.
By ordinance, a late fee is added to each license not purchased within 30 days.
