Required Paperwork
- A current rabies vaccination certificate is required if the rabies vaccination on file has expired. Please check your certificate for correct address and pet information.
- Proof of spay/neuter, such as a signed statement from a veterinarian or an invoice for services is required if the pet has been altered since the last licensing period and you are applying for the lower spayed/neutered license fee.
- If licensing a service animal, a letter is required from a veterinarian or doctor stating that the dog is a service animal.
Your paperwork will not be returned to you, so please retain a copy of your documents for your records.
