DOG LICENSES
The program previously used for dog licenses was discontinued by Columbia County in 2023. The program will now be solely based by Columbia County but with the conversion ALL of the files/information previously inserted into the dog licensing program was erased. Paper copies were kept and have been manually keyed into the new program BUT please be patient – this may be a bit of a change for this year’s process. Reminder: Pay with separate check from tax payments.
License feels remain the same $5.00 for spayed or neutered and $10 if not and a $35 kennel fee. If you mail yours in, please include a self-addressed stamped envelope! Thank you!!
