Dog Licensing Requirements
ALL dog licenses are due in the month of June each year. If you have a new dog, now is the time to register him or her.
To license a dog, whether it is by renewal or a new license you MUST bring the “Rabies Certificate” that you get from your vet. That information includes:
Name of vaccine manufacturer
There are multiple ways to pay your dog license: online at townofoakfieldny.com, go to clerk’s page, scroll down. (A convenience fee applies). You can mail the license with a check made out to the Town of Oakfield, and mail to 3219 Drake Street Road, Oakfield, NY 14125, or use the night drop box in the front of the building.
PLEASE NOTE, WHILE ALL DOGS ARE DUE IN THE MONTH OF JUNE, YOU HAVE 30 DAYS TO PAY THE LICENSE FEE. IF NOT PAID BY SEPTEMBER 1ST YOU WILL HAVE A LATE FEE ADDED TO THE FEE IF YOU DON’T PAY. THIS FEE WILL NOT BE WAIVED AS YOU HAVE MULTIPLE WAYS TO PAY AND THREE MONTHS TO DO SO.
Regular office hours are Monday-Thursday 7:30 am-4:00 pm

Article 7 of the NEW YORK STATE Agriculture and Market Law requires all dogs older than 4 months to be licensed within the Town they reside. Licensing ensures that all dogs have been properly vaccinated against rabies for the protection of both you and your neighbors. If your dog is NOT yet vaccinated there may be a low cost clinic in your area. Please contact 585-948-5835 ext. 101 for more information. Licensing ensures that your dog has the best chance to be returned to you if lost or picked up by animal control. ANY DOG LIVING WITH YOU FOR MORE THAN 30 DAYS MUST BE LICENSED.
ANYONE WHO OWNS A DOG 4 MONTHS OR OLDER MUST LICENSE THEIR DOG WITH THE TOWN CLERK. SHOULD YOU FAIL TO LICENSE YOUR DOG AND YOU ARE REPORTED TO THE TOWN OFFICES OR THE LICENSE IS DELINQUENT, YOU WILL RECEIVE AN APPEARANCE FOR COURT.
