January 1 is the deadline to have your dog licensed for the first time or re-licensed, said Helen Kehrer, supervisor of dog licensing in the State Department of Agriculture. If you have a new puppy, she added, and it is allowed to roam off your property then you must have your dog licensed right away. However, if the puppy is confined to your home or property then he or she doesn't have to be licensed until six-months of age. The licenses may be purchased from the clerk's office in any city or town in which the dog is kept. In Nassau and Westchester counties, certain villages also have the licenses for sale. Check with your local clerk to see if your dog must have a rabies vac* cination to get licensed. Certain counties in this state require proof of vaccination before a license can be issued. It will cost you $5.35 to have an .unspayed female dog licensed for the year and $2.35 to have a spayed female or male dog licensed. However, if you do not get your animal licensed and it is seized and impounded for that reason, it will cost you a $5. seizure fee, plus the cost of the license to retrieve your pet. In any city in the state you must retrieve your dog within three days. In rural parts of the state you have five days to retrieve your dog after he is seized.
