Please follow these guidelines when applying:

• • There is a $60 fee for licenses that are 14 days or less and a $125 fee for more than 14 days.
  • Each temporary license can be requested from 1 to 30 days (no more).
  • An individual may only hold one temporary license at a time, and they cannot be issued consecutively. There must be at least 14 days between licenses held.
  • Dogs cannot be issued consecutive temporary licenses.  There must be at least 14 days between licenses held.
  • Applications can be submitted no more than 30 days in advance of the initial license request date – please time your requests accordingly.
  • Applications should be submitted at least 5 days in advance of the initial license request date to allow ample time for review and processing.
  • An application does not guarantee a license will be granted. It is unlawful for any person to bring a dog within the boundaries of the Town, whether in a motor vehicle or otherwise, which is not licensed by the Town.
  • The Town has 10 temporary licenses. Licenses are divided into the following categories: 1-3 days (3), 4-14 days (3), 15-30 days (3), and 1-30 days (1).
  • Applicants/dogs have a cumulative 90-day cap for the year starting July 1 and ending June 30.  It is up to applicants to decide on their request dates, for example, this could be up to three 30-day licenses or up to six 15-day licenses.
  • Licenses are generally issued on a first come – first serve basis, in combination with meeting eligibility requirements and license availability.
  • Once a license has been issued, dates can not be adjusted and we have a no refund policy.  If you would like additional dates, please make a new request but please be aware dates can not be consecutive.
  • We tend to receive the most applications around the holidays, please be prepared with alternative arrangements for your pet should a license not be available.
  • Be kind to your neighbor, please don’t horde licenses when you don’t need them.
