When should I license my dog?
If you have acquired a new dog, you must license it immediately when it becomes three months of age, and then yearly by January 31.

There is a penalty equal to the registration fee if the dog is not licensed within 30 days of obtaining the dog, or if purchased after January 31. New puppies that are 3 months old or younger as of July 1 are half the standard price after July 1st. Fines for not registering dogs are approximately $80.
