Dog Registrar
The Dog Registrar is responsible for ensuring that dogs in the Township are licensed. Pet owners must license their dog with the Dog Registrar each year.
In order for us to issue the license, each dog must have a valid rabies vaccination. A vaccination that expires before October 31 of the calendar year is not considered to be valid.
