DOG LICENSING

If you own a dog that is over 4 months old and lives within the city limits, you are required to license your dog with the city. This licensing will ensure that if your pet is ever missing or found and placed in the dog impound, we will be able to contact you and get your dog back to you safely. *ALL COLORADO CITY TOWN ORDINANCES CONCERNING ANIMALS AND PETS ARE LISTED AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE FOR YOUR REFERENCE.*

STEPS TO LICENSE YOUR DOG

• Fill out the Dog Licensing Form
• Take the form with verification of rabies vaccination to the City Office (This form must come from a certified veterinarian)
• Pay license fee ($10)
• You will be issued a tag for your dog, to be worn at all times

MY ANIMAL IS MISSING

If your animal goes missing please call the Impound immediately at (928)875-9170 with a description of the animal to officially report it missing. Then, if it is located, the officers will attempt to contact you to retrieve it, rather than send it to the impound.
