Dog and Kennel Licences

Dogs in Norfolk County must be licensed under the Animal Care and Control By-Law. Licences are valid for one year from the date of purchase and must be renewed annually. Licensing your dog is the quickest way to ensure they are returned to you if they become lost. Every year, dogs are reunited with their owners because they were wearing a current licence.

When applying for a licence, proof of spay or neuter is required for all new licences, and proof of rabies vaccination is required for every application.
