Pursuant to Section 174.052 of the Wisconsin Statutes, notice is hereby given to all owners of dogs in Calumet County that rabies vaccinations and dog licenses are required according to the Wisconsin Statutes.

Vaccination of all dogs against rabies by a veterinarian is required according to Wisconsin Statute Section 95.21(2) within 30 days after a dog reaches four months of age and re-vaccinated within one year after the initial vaccination. Older dogs must be re-vaccinated when the certificate expires or within three years of the previous vaccination.

All dogs five months of age or older require a license.

Minimum License Fees

Male Neutered:  $3
Male Unneutered: $8

Female Spayed: $3

These minimum fees may be supplemented by local municipal action.

Multiple Dog Licenses
