2022 ANNUAL TOWN MEETING BYLAW CHANGES APPROVED THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
2024 DOG AND KENNEL LICENSE APPLICATIONS AVAILABLE
2024 dog and kennel license applications are now available below and at Town Hall. The 2024 license covers July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025. The deadline to apply is June 30, 2024. A late fee of $10 per dog will be charged for applications received after July 15, 2024. Fees are as follows:
$6.00 per dog - intact male, neutered male, or spayed female
$10.00 per dog - intact female
$25.00 per kennel - 4 to 10 dogs
$75.00 per kennel - 10 or more dogs
A current rabies certificate must be on file with the Town Clerk or provided at the time of registration.
Due to issues with dog licensing in recent years, the Selectboard has decided that owners will have a fresh start for 2024 and will not be required to pay for past years licenses before the 2024 license can be issued. If you have any questions, please contact Interim Town Clerk Michelle Fieldstad-Booth at townclerk [at] huntingtonma.us or 413-512-5209.
