City Ordinance 11-0102 requires that all dogs and cats over the age of 12 weeks must be licensed by the West Fargo Police Department. In order to license your pet, please bring proof of a current rabies vaccination to the West Fargo Police Department. A clerk will then issue the license after verifying that the proper vaccination has been given. and the proper fee is paid.  Pet licensing is also available on our website.   The pet license is valid for the issued year.  Tags for the new year will be available starting in December.
