Dog Licensing can be done in the town office or on-line at https://www10.informe.org/dog_license/

If you have a dog over the age of 6 months, it should be licensed. A Rabies Certificate must be produced and if neutered, a Neutering Certificate if the Town Office doesn’t have it on file. All Rabies vaccinations for adult dogs now cover three years of protection. The fee for a neutered dog is $6.00 and non-neutered $10.00. All dogs must be licensed by January 31, of each year. Dogs licensed after January 31 will incur an additional $15.00 late fee.

Please understand that by having your dog licensed, anyone finding your stray pet will be able to trace it to you, thereby alleviating the possibility that it will go to a shelter. Licensing funds contribute to stray animal care in the town and state and supports the State Veterinarian Laboratory in Augusta as well as Maine State Humane Agents which investigate animal abuse cases.
