ORS 609.100 - Dog licenses, tags and fees - 2007 Oregon Revised Statutes
2007 ORS Vol. 13 Chapter 609 Section 609.100
2007 ORS 609.100¹
(1) In a county, precinct or city having a dog control program under ORS 609.030 (Establishing dog control district), 609.035 (Definitions for ORS 609.035 to 609.110 and 609.990) to 609.110 (Dog License Fund) and 609.405 (Requirement for destroying dogs and cats), every person keeping a dog that has a set of permanent canine teeth or is six months old, whichever comes first, shall procure a license for the dog. The license must be procured by paying a license fee to the county in which the person resides not later than March 1 of each year or within 30 days after the person becomes keeper of the dog. However, the county governing body may provide for dates other than March 1 for annual payment of fees. The fee for the license shall be determined by the county governing body in such amount as it finds necessary to carry out ORS 609.035 (Definitions for ORS 609.035 to 609.110 and 609.990) to 609.110 (Dog License Fund). A license fee shall not be less than $25 for each dog, except that the fee shall not be less than $3 for each spayed female or neutered male dog for which a veterinarian’s certificate of operation for the spaying or neutering of the dog is presented to the county. If the person fails to procure a license within the time provided by this section, the county governing body may prescribe a penalty in an additional sum to be set by the governing body.
(3) The license fees in subsection (1) of this section do not apply to dogs that are kept primarily in kennels and are not permitted to run at large. The county governing body may establish a separate license for dogs that are kept primarily in kennels when the dogs cease to be considered inventory under ORS 307.400 (Inventory), the fee for which shall not exceed $5 per dog.
(b) If the keeper of the dog transfers the keeping of the dog to a person who resides in a city or county other than the city or county in which the license was issued.
