Do I need a dog license? How can I renew my dog license?

Every dog owned or harbored in New York State for longer than 30 days must be licensed in the town, city or village where the dog is being harbored.

You may license your dog in person at the Town Clerk’s office or by mail. Licenses are issued for one year.

To be issued an original or a renewal license, you will need to provide:

  • spay/neuter certificate if applicable
  • proof of current rabies vaccination
  • check or cash for the appropriate fee ($12.50 spayed or neutered, $20.50 unspayed or unneutered)

There is no fee for guide dogs, war dogs, hearing dogs, police work dogs or service dogs.
