How do I get a dog license?

Any dog 4 months old or older is required by NH law to have a current license. All licenses expire annually on April 30th. Owners must present a valid rabies certificate at the time of licensing. The fees are $9.00 for an unaltered male/female or $6.50 for an altered male/female. Any individual over the age of 65 may license one dog at the cost of $2.00; any additional dogs being licensed will be charged at the above rate. Failure to follow this procedure by June 1 will result in a $1.00 penalty for each month the owner is delinquent. Dog licenses are due by May 1st (RSA 466:1) of each year. Renewals can be done in person or by clicking the image below.
