Why Register Your Pet?
A current registration and a valid rabies certificate can be your pet’s ticket home. When an animal is brought to the shelter, we first check for a microchip, followed by checking for a registration tag or rabies tag. If your pet is registered and wearing its tag, we can quickly contact you, letting you know your furry friend is safe and awaiting reunion with their family.
You may register your pet in person at the Animal Shelter and Care or apply for registration online.

The AS&C receive many lost or found reports to post notices on our social media network. With the help of our AS&C Shelter software, we have the option to provide this service. Animals in our system can easily be looked up to match the animals with the owners immediately. It’s similar to microchipping where they are in a national data base. This Pet registration service is just a County wide data base giving pet owners an additional coverage if their pets are lost.
The only requirement to register your dog and/or cat is proof of a current rabies vaccination. If rabies vaccine is updated before registration period ends, please keep us posted and submit new rabies vaccination proof before it laps.
If the rabies vaccine lapses, you will need to renew registration.
