Dog Control

Every dog four months of age or older is required by NYS Agriculture & Markets Law to be licensed in the town where it’s harbored. There is an annual fee of $25 for unneutered/unspayed and $15 for neutered/spayed. Current proof of rabies is required along with the Dog License Application.

Pursuant to General Municipal Law §209-cc, everyone who owns, possesses or harbors certain wild animals must report the location of the animal to the Town Clerk on or before April 1st of each year.

If you have concerns regarding felines, please contact your local shelter for further assistance. 

If you have concerns about sick or injured wildlife, please visit the DEC website at www.dec.ny.gov/animals/7005.html.
