Pet Licensing

By law, every dog in Queen Anne’s County must be licensed. The licenses expire on December 31st each year. You must re-license your dog every year, unless you purchase a three (3) year license.

You will need to provide a copy of your current rabies vaccination certificate (not copy of the tag) and spay/neuter certificate (if applicable) with your application. Failure to provide these will delay processing of your license.

To obtain your county dog license, you may:

  • Visit our office and purchase one
  • Mail a completed form and payment
  • Use our online licensing system
