Animal Control

The goal is to reunite dogs and cats with their owners and protect residents from animals running at large. If you come across a domestic animal (cat/dog) running at large, or if your pet is missing, it is always best to contact Animal Control first.

Pet Licensing

Dogs and cats six months old or older are required to be licensed annually by January 1st at City Hall.

The licensing fees are $5.00 for altered pets and $15.00 for unaltered pets. After April 15, fees are $10.00 for altered pets and $20.00 for unaltered pets. Please bring proof of current rabies vaccination and alteration.
