Dog licensing for the 2017 season begins December 1st, 2016 through January 31, 2017.

Why Should I License My Dog?

According to Ohio Law, every person who owns, keeps, or harbors a dog more than three months of age, shall, on or after the first day of December, but before the thirty-first day of January of each year, register their dog(s) with the county Auditor. (O.R.C. 955.01)

License fees must be paid in full before the deadline of January 31st each year. Failure to register is a misdemeanor punishable by a maximum fine of $100.00. (O.R.C. 955.21)

Dog Licensing Fees

1 Year Dog License - $25.00 per dog
3 Year Dog License - $75.00 per dog*
Permanent Dog License - $250.00 per dog*
*3 year and permanent tags are non-refundable and are non-transferable.

In addition to the standard 1 year dog license, Lucas County dog owners can purchase a 3 year tag or a permanent (life of the dog) tag instead. 3 year and permanent tags are assigned to a specific dog and cannot be transferred or returned. Extended duration tags must be purchased from the Lucas County Auditors Office or Lucas County Canine Care and Control.

If a dog needs to be removed from your account (i.e. deceased, transfer to another owner, etc.) and to avoid future mailings with the dog's information, call the Lucas County Auditor at (419) 213-4443.

Dog owners who purchase a dog license will also receive a Lucas County Loves Dogs reward card (key fob).

Found a Lost Dog?

Designed to help reunite lost dogs with their owners, the Lucas County Dog Tag database can search dog owner information. The license on a dog's collar will identify the owner so the dog can be returned home. If a dog wearing a license is turned into Lucas County Canine Care and Control, the owner will be notified either in person or by phone and certified mail.
