County goes digital with dog licensing

Marion County Dog Services now offers online dog licensing. 

Dog Services Director Ann Potter said, “We know the community wants an online option and it’s become even more necessary this year with our lobby closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Online licensing can be accessed from the following link: bit.ly/MCDogLicense

To license online, dog owners will need a copy of their dog’s current rabies vaccine. Photos of rabies certificates may be uploaded directly to the licensing program. Dog licenses may not be purchased for longer than the rabies expiration date.

License fees are $20 annually for altered dogs and start at $37 for non-altered dogs. Discounted fees are available for multi-year licenses and for senior dog owners. For more information about Marion Dog Services fees and hours, visit www.mcdogs.net, call 503-588-5233, or email [email protected].
