The cost for licensing unaltered or fertile pets is higher than for licensing spayed or neutered pets in order to promote sterilization and to reduce pet overpopulation.

Payment for your license is due by January 1st. If you are licensing for the first time, you must purchase a license within 30 days of obtaining a pet over the age of 5 months or within 30 days of moving into the City of La Crosse.

A late fee is added to the license fee if your license is not renewed by March 31st. The late fee on April 1st is $25.00 per pet.

You may license by mail and pay for your license with a check or money order made payable to “City of La Crosse."

You may license online and pay for your license with a major credit card. A convenience fee will apply per transaction. Multiple pets can be licensed in one transaction.

1. A current rabies vaccination certificate is required if the rabies vaccination on file has expired. Please check your certificate for correct address and pet information.
2. Proof of spay/neuter, such as a signed statement from a veterinarian or an invoice for services is required if the pet has been altered since the last licensing period and you are applying for the lower spayed/neutered license fee.

Your paperwork will not be returned to you, so please retain a copy of your documents for your records.

1. Enclose copies of all required paperwork. The license application below may be downloaded and included, but it is not required.
