ANIMAL LICENSE

 

Animal License

Animal Licensing supports the cost of animal control within the City of Hoyt Lakes. A benefit of having your pet licensed is if a dog or cat is lost & someone finds it, they can call the Animal Control Officer or City Clerk's office, provide the animal's license number, & we can provide the owner's contact information so the pet can be returned.  

The ordinance regulating animal licenses has changed. When applying for an Animal License you now have two options - an annual or lifetime license. An Annual license requires renewal & payment every year. A Lifetime license doesn't require renewal or payment every year & is not transferrable. No refunds will be given for any reason. 

Licenses are available to purchase in person or by mail. Please be sure to provide a copy of the current rabies vaccination certificate, & if appropriate, a veterinary record showing that the pet has been altered (spayed or neutered). Licenses will not be issued without required paperwork. 

By Mail: Complete the Animal License Application & mail to City Hall along with the current rabies vaccination certificate, veterinary record if pet is altered, & payment to:
