Dog Licenses |
|
|
| Every dog in the City of Eugene and unincorporated Lane County MUST obtain a license when one of two things occurs: either the dog reaches the age of six months, or it obtains its permanent canine teeth, whichever comes first. Failure to provide and keep the license current may result in a late fee and/or fine.
In order to obtain a license, a dog owner must present documentation showing that the dog has a current rabies shot unless specifically exempted for medical reasons, in writing, by a licensed veterinarian. Proof of spay or neuter must be presented if applicable. Licenses can be purchased or renewed in person or through the mail. |

TOP 10 REASONS TO LICENSE YOUR DOG |
A license tells everyone that your pet is not a homeless stray and that the owner cares enough to register the pet legally.
It means Lane County Animal Regulation Authority will call and/or send a letter if your lost pet comes to the shelter.
It enables Lane County Animal Regulation Authority to protect your neighborhood from dangerous dogs and investigate dog bites.
Licensing helps pay for the care and adoption of homeless animals.
It supports investigations of cruelty, neglect and abandonment of domestic animals and livestock.
A license allows the officer that finds your stray dog to take it right home, saving you time and money.
The silver tag is easily recognized.
Licensing supports youth programs covering humane ethics and safety with animals.
Licensing helps to pay for emergency service. If an animal is seriously injured, sick, or aggressive, we can respond to assist.
