Looking for the Perfect Gift for Spot? How About a New Dog License

Portland dog owners are reminded to license their dogs

PORTLAND, Maine: Starting with the New Year, Portland resident dog owners are required, pursuant to Maine law, to have all dogs six months of age or older licensed. Dog licenses are issued for a calendar year and current ones will expire December 31, 2013. A dog license can be obtained from the City Clerk’s office at City Hall, Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM. Renewals and new registrations are also available online at https://www.informe.org/dog_license/begin.shtml or through the mail.  Call 874-8610 for more details.

To license a dog, the dog owner should provide a current State of Maine Rabies Certificate. If the dog has been spayed or neutered, the dog owner should also bring in proof of neutering such as a previous license or written verification of neutering from a veterinarian the first time a dog is licensed.

Fees for dog licenses are:
Spayed or neutered - $6.00
Not spayed or neutered - $11.00
Late fee $25.00 (per dog) applies after 1/31/14
