Time to License your Dog!

January 1, 2025

How do I license my dog? What are the fees?

Per State and Local Town Ordniance, all dogs  need to be registered/licensed by six months of age in the town in which they reside to be legal. The State has increased their portion of the licensing fee by $2.00 to allocate additional funds to the low-cost rabies clinics, low-cost spay neuter clinics, and the continued enforcement of animal welfare issues. Towns collect license fees and send them to the state.

You can obtain a dog license by coming into the office with a VALID RABIES CERTIFICATE and payment. You can now pay on line by credit card or check, but you would need to send us a copy of a VALID RABIES CERTIFICATE before a tag can be issued. We can mail the tag back to you. Please call the office with any questions at 802-525-3007.




Before April 1st an altered male/female would have a total fee of $11.00 ($4 Town Fee -$4 Neuter Program-$3 Rabies Program)

Before April 1st an un-altered Male/female would have a fee of $15.00 ($8 Town Fee- $4 Neuter Program-$3 Rabies Program)

If you no longer have your dog, please let us know via email or phone.
