2024 Dog License Renewals Now Required in La Crosse County

Onalaska, WALocal News

Pet owners in La Crosse County are reminded that all 2024 dog licenses have expired, necessitating immediate renewal to comply with local regulations. The cost for licensing is $12 for altered dogs and $23 for intact dogs, a reasonable fee aimed at promoting responsible pet ownership. Residents can conveniently pay through a drop box, but they must include a copy of their dog’s current rabies certificate and a self-addressed stamped envelope to facilitate the return of their tags. This licensing process is essential not only for legal compliance but also for the health and safety of the community. The Coulee Region Humane Society is a valuable resource for pet owners, offering important information about animal control and welfare.

By renewing their licenses promptly, pet owners can avoid potential fines and ensure their pets are legally recognized. The La Crosse Urban Stormwater Group, along with the county website, provides support and guidance for residents navigating the licensing process. Timely action is encouraged to uphold community standards and promote responsible pet ownership.
