*VENDOR LICENSE IS REQUIRED IN ORDER TO PURCHASE A KENNEL LICENSE. THE COST IS $25.00

WHICH IS A ONE TIME FEE AS LONG AS THE VENDOR LICENSE IS ACTIVE. YOU CAN ONLY

PURCHASE A KENNEL LICENSE FROM THE AUDITOR’S OFFICE.*

*If all dogs owned are altered (spayed/ neutered), owner does NOT qualify for a kennel license.

“A KENNEL OWNER is a person, partnership, firm, company, or corporation professionally engaged in the

business of BREEDING DOGS for hunting or for sale”

If a dog is licensed in any county in Ohio and the owner moves to another county in Ohio, that current license will

be honored by that county for the remainder of the year. The owner should notify the county where the license

was issued of the change of address.

When you have your pet spayed or neutered, you not only contribute to the solution of pet overpopulation, you

also reduce the risk that your pet will contract certain cancers or develop aggressive tendencies.
