June is the renewal month for dog licenses for all dogs six months and older in Orange. This year, the town is automatically entering all those who obtain a dog license into a raffle to win a basket of dog treats and toys.
The raffle drawing will take place on Monday, July 3.
One of the three ways to obtain a license is to visit the town clerk’s office at Town Hall Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. If you are unable to stop by in person, you can visit the town website at orange-ct.gov for instructions on how to renew a dog license electronically or by mail.
The costs to obtain a dog license are $8 for spayed females or neutered males, and $19 for unspayed/unneutered dogs.
An up-to-date rabies vaccination certificate and a neutering/spaying certificate are required to renew or obtain a new dog license. According to state law, it is the responsibility of the dog owner to obtain a license in June each year. After June 30, there is a state mandated $1 per month penalty for unlicensed dogs.
For questions, call the town clerk’s office at 203-891-4030.
