Fall River issuing new dog licenses
Dog licenses for the 2018 licensing period of April 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019
will be available at the Fall River City Clerk’s Office Monday through Friday from 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. beginning on Monday, March 12, 2018. Owners are required to obtain new licenses for all dogs four months or older.
Licenses may be paid on the city’s website www.fallriverma.org by searching “Dog Licenses”. Dog owners cannot be issued a dog license unless they first produce a veterinarian’s certificate indicating that their dog has been vaccinated against rabies and that the vaccination has not expired.
To avoid unnecessary inconvenience, when applying for a dog license, dog
owners must make sure they bring a valid veterinarian’s certificate with current Fall River address.
License fees are $15.00 for male or female dogs and $10.00 for neutered males or spayed females. To obtain a neutered male or spayed female license, owners must present a veterinarian’s certificate stating that the dog has been neutered or spayed. A $5.00 mail processing fee for the total order is required for mailed and online requests.
Under Massachusetts General Laws, any dog owner 70 years of age or older is entitled to a free license with proof of age.
Owners of unlicensed dogs shall be subject to all fines and penalties as set forth in Section 6-12 of the Ordinances of the City of Fall River.
