Neighborhood communication is a very important part of neighborhood security. Even the act of telling someone his or her dog is bothering you can further communication. If these methods fail then you should call the Anchorage Animal Control Center at 343-8118. Do not try to silence the animal yourself or wait until you can no longer handle the barking. Tackle the problem early on.
Animals are family and disciplining someone else's family member can result in violence.
Anchorage city boundaries are from Eklutna to and including Girdwood. Applications for renewal licenses are to be submitted between October 1 and December 31. Any dog or wolf hybrid transported into the municipality must be licensed within 30 days of the arrival of the animal in the municipality. A license identifies your dog as yours, showing everyone your dog is not a homeless stray, that the owner cares enough to register the pet legally. Your dog's personal data is kept on computer.
