What are the benefits of licensing my dog?
It is our responsibility to provide a safe community for our citizens and their pets. Licensing plays an important role in our ability to fulfill this responsibility. A licence allows animal control to identify your dog, get in touch with you, and make decisions that are in the best interest of your dog should it become lost or injured.
The Town has partnered with DocuPet to make every dog licence as valuable to you as it is to animal safety.
