TAX AND LICENSE / PET LICENSING

Delaware state law requires that all dogs six months or older must have rabies shots and be licensed on or before March 1st each year. Fees vary depending upon the duration of the license and whether or not the animal is neutered. Licenses are available at the county offices, pet protective associations, hardware stores, pet shops, and many veterinarian offices. No license is required for cats, although rabies vaccinations are mandatory for all cats six months or older.
