Are there penalties for not registering your animal?

Every owner who fails to register their dog or cat within 30 days of the expiration of the registration period will pay, in addition to the registration fee, a penalty fee for late registration in the following amounts:

  • For registration more than 30 days but less than 60 days late there is a $5 penalty fee.
  • For registrations more than 60 days but less than 90 days late there is a $10 penalty fee.
