The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture is reminding dog owners to license their pets for 2023.

All dogs 3 months of age and older are required to be licensed by Jan. 1 of each year.

The fee for an annual dog license is $6.50, or $8.50 if the animal is not spayed or neutered. Lifetime licenses are available for dogs that have permanent identification such as a microchip or tattoo. Discounts are available for qualifying older adults and persons with disabilities.

Pennsylvania dog licenses are available for purchase through county treasurers.
