Dog Licenses & Lost Dogs
Pursuant to the New York Public Health Law, county public health authorities must offer free clinics at least every four months for the rabies vaccination of dogs, as well as for cats and domesticated ferrets. Contact the Monroe County Health Department for more details.
All dogs within the Town of Henrietta four (4) months of age or older, unless otherwise exempted, are required to be licensed by the Town.
The following is required when a dog is licensed:
Un-spayed or un-neutered dogs require Veterinarian's Certificate indicating current rabies vaccination. The annual fee is $18 and is non-refundable.
Spayed or neutered dogs require Veterinarian's Certificate indicating current rabies vaccination and Veterinarian's Certificate of Spaying/Neutering. The annual fee is $9 and is non-refundable.
Lost Dogs: Under the Henrietta Town Code, any officer or Animal Control Officer of the town may seize any dog not on the owner's premises or any unlicensed dog, whether or not on the owner's premises.
If you have found or lost a dog, please call Henrietta Animal Control at 359-7009. The dog can be released once the Clerk has proof of current license, including proof of rabies vaccination, and payment of boarding and seizure fees. The Town Clerk accepts cash, check, Visa, Mastercard and Discover for all dog license transactions.
