ØFemale: $2.50 + $5.00 local fee = $7.50

Unneutered / Unspayed

ØMale: $10.50 + $5.00 local fee = $15.50

ØFemale: $10.50 + $5.00 local fee = $15.50

Dogs found wandering at large are subject to seizure. To redeem a seized dog on a first-time impoundment, the owner must pay an impoundment fee ($25.00) and shelter fees ($20.00 per day for dogs up to 50 lbs. and $25.00 per day for dogs 50 lbs and over) and present a current dog license. It may also be necessary to pay for vaccinations. For each subsequent impoundment, the fee is $30.00 for the second offense, $35.00 for the third offense. The Dog Control Officer may also issue a ticket for running at large. Penalties for violations range from $50.00 up to $ 250.00.
