The cost is $12.00 per dog or $10.00 if spayed or neutered. The cost is $7.50 per cat or $5.00 if spayed or neutered. You will be required to show a current rabies vaccination certificate, and proof of spaying/neutering. The animal is always to be on a leash. Any dog or cat found running at large with or without licensing may be impounded and a $50.00 fine charged for its return; the second time impounded the fine will be $100.00, and the third time impounded the fine will be $150.00. In addition to the impound fee, the pet owner will be responsible for licensing fees if the pet is found running at large without a license.

Animal Ordinance No. 2016-002 or Municipal Code Book Article 2, Section 3- 201 addresses further rule regarding pets.
