Do I have to register my dog and how do I do this?

Yes, all dogs over six (6) months of age must be licensed by the Municipal Clerk of the town you live in, annually, by December 31st.   Please have your dog's current Maine rabies vaccination along with proof of a spay or neuter operation if the dog has been altered.  The annual fee is $11 for unaltered dogs and $6 for altered dogs.  Late fees begin on February 1st of each year for each un-registered dog.

There are 3 ways to register your dog:

1. Stop by the Clerk's Department at Town Hall and register in person

2. Mail your check and a copy of the required documents to the Town Clerk's Department, 271 Falmouth Road, Falmouth, Me 04105

3. On-line Registration through the State of Maine       HERE

If you register through the mail or on-line, stickers/tags will be mailed to you as soon as the registration is recieved and processed
