If your pet is ever missing, a dog license tag provides the best way of notifying you if someone finds your pet. Once your dog has been assigned a license with his own distinctive tag number, the number and information about your dog is permanently filed in the county's records.

Ohio law requires that licenses are to be renewed from December 1 through January 31 or within thirty days if you acquire a new dog. Puppies must be licensed by the time they reach three months of age. Cost is $18 annually for a one-year dog license, $54 for a three-year dog license, and $180 for lifetime/permanent dog license. Ohio law requires an additional late fee ($18 in Summit County) if you do not renew your dog's license by January 31 of the year it is due.

Yearly renewal applications will be automatically mailed to all current registered dog owners. If you have lost your renewal form please call our office.
