Rabies Registration and Tags

As a citizen it is my responsibility to...

Pet owners must vaccinate against rabies and register every dog, cat or ferret 3 months of age and over.  Every dog or cat should wear a rabies tag and license tag on their collar. A ferret's rabies tag may be secured to their cage or enclosure or affixed to a collar.

It is the responsibility of the city to...

Rabies tags and vaccinations are available at veterinary offices. Tagged animals receive immediate veterinary care if injured or sick, and owners are notified of their pets whereabouts by phone and/or mail.

If I am interested, who do I contact...
