Purchase or renew a dog license now
Starting this September, dog owners in Washington County will receive an email or letter from DocuPet. Please open whatever they send – it’s legit! Washington County Animal Services has partnered with DocuPet to bring you a better licensing experience. When you license your dog for the first time or renew your dog license in our new system, you will receive a license tag to attach to their collar. You can select a standard license tag at no additional charge or upgrade to a customized tag for an additional fee. All licenses will include DocuPet’s free HomeSafe™ 24/7 lost pet service, in case your animal ever goes missing.
Dogs in Washington County must be licensed. You must provide proof of a current rabies vaccination for your dog for the license to be valid. Your veterinarian can provide you with this proof.
Licenses cost less if you buy several years at one time, if your dog is spayed or neutered, or if you are at least 65 years old with a spayed or neutered dog. You will need to provide proof that you are eligible for these lower costs.
We are waiving all late fees for dog licensing through October 31, 2026. This is a one-time opportunity to save money and get current without paying a late fee. Take advantage of the benefits of having your dog licensed and enrolled in the 24/7 lost pet service without the extra fee!
