Do you have dogs? Dog tags are due April 01 each year and are $5 for altered dogs, $10 for unaltered. After April 30, there is a $10 late fee per tag, so altered dogs are now $15 and unaltered $20. All dogs over 6 months old are to be licensed annually with the City, and that requires a licensed veterinarian certificate showing proof of current rabies vaccination and spay/neuter status. If you have 4 or more dogs, you must also purchase a kennel license. Please note: The City of Howard has the following ordinances regarding animals in the city limits. #635–Prohibiting Pit Bulls and vicious animals, #636-Leash Law, #637-Prohibiting Exotic Animals In addition, you are bound by all state and federal laws including animal neglect and abuse regulations
