License Your Pet

Category: Animal License

Your pets must be licensed in Manatee County. Your pet (dog, cat or ferret) requires a yearly rabies vaccination and a Manatee County license. Failure to obtain this registration could result in fines as high as $1,000. Purchasing a license is not just the law, it is like taking out an insurance policy – if your pet ever gets lost, it can help ensure they’ll find their way home.

For additional information please call Animal Services or visit our website.
