'License for Love Campaign launched this week reminds residents that pet licenses are required

King County mandates pet licenses for dogs and cats eight weeks old or older, emphasizing pet identification and protection. These licenses facilitate the free Ride Home Program, allowing lost pets to return home efficiently. North Bend residents can acquire licenses at City Hall or online at RASKC's website, ensuring affordability and accessibility. Regional Animal Services of King County covers numerous cities, including North Bend, Bellevue, and Redmond, providing vital services to the community. Licensing pets helps reunite them with their families and supports adoption services for homeless animals.

This initiative reflects a commitment to animal welfare and public safety. The program's importance grows as more families adopt pets, highlighting the need for responsible pet ownership. Residents are urged to participate in the licensing process to enhance community pet care.
