All dogs over the age of 6 months old residing in the Town of Danville must be licensed each year by April 1. A current rabies certificate is required. You may obtain the licenses at the Town Clerk’s office at 36 Route 2 West with fees (and fines) as follows. 

• Neutered males & spayed females – $11 (after April 1st, $13 + fine)
• Intact males & females – $15 (after April 1st, $19 + fine)
• Fine for lack of current license and/or rabies tag: $100 for first offense, $200 for subsequent offenses (but note: late voluntary waiver fee is ZERO for the first two weeks, $5 from April 16 to June 30, $10 July 1 and later)
• Examples: If you simply forgot and come in to register a neutered male on April 2, the cost is $13 (no fine); on April 16, it becomes $18 (13+5); and on July 1 it becomes $23 (13+10). If the Town has to chase you down to register a neutered male, the starting figure is $113 (13+100).

You may license dogs with an online payment; note that you will need to provide a copy of the current rabies certificate if the Town Clerk’s office does not have one on file.
