How do I obtain a dog license?

Pursuant to Connecticut General Statute 22-338, all dogs over the age of six months of age must be vaccinated for rabies and licensed during the month of June. The licensing fee is $8 for spayed / neutered dogs and $19 for male / female dogs.

If you are licensing for the first time, it will be necessary for you to provide your name, address, phone number, name of dog, breed, age, and color. You will also be required to provide proof of current rabies vaccination and proof of your dog being neutered or spayed from your veterinarian.  Dog License Application

If this is a renewal, you will need to provide documentation of current rabies vaccination if it is noted on your renewal that your vaccination has expired.

Annual licenses must be obtained during the period of June 1, 2021, through June 30, 2021. Beginning July 1, a $1 per month late fee will be charged for each month you fail to license your dog(s). If you are renewing by mail, send your renewal and a check payable to the City of Danbury along with a stamped, self-addressed envelope to:

Town Clerk's Office
City of Danbury
155 Deer Hill Avenue
Danbury, CT 06810
