According to California Health and Safety Code Section
121690(a) and County Ordinance Section 541-32(a),
dogs shall be vaccinated for rabies and licensed at the age of 4 months or 10
days after the arrival of the dog in the unincorporated areas of Humboldt
County. It makes no difference whether the dog is an indoor dog, never gets out
of the yard or house, or the dog’s home is in the country. All dogs must be
licensed in the incorporated city or county in which they live. Licenses
are due yearly on the anniversary date of the rabies vaccination. Prior
to the expiration date of the license, courtesy renewal notices are sent on each
dog.
Please note: The owner is responsible for renewing the license on or
before the expiration date even if the renewal notice is not received. Tags
are used for the life of the dog, however, if new tags are needed, the charge is
$5.00 each.
In the event the owner changes mailing and/or physical
addresses, the Animal Control Office must be contacted with the new information
within 30 days. If the dog is sold or ownership transferred, the transferring
owner must notify the Animal Control office of the name, address and phone
number of the new owner.
Special licenses for breeders and kennels are available at
reduced rates. Please call for details.
