Glenn
County Sheriff’s Office Animal Control Unit responds to calls involving rabid
animals and domestic animal nuisances, loose livestock on private property,
as well as public roads, issues licenses and ensures rabies control for both
the County and the Cities. Below is
information you may find helpful:
LICENSING:
Per Glenn
County Code, all dogs over the age of 4 months are required to be
licensed by our office. (Cats are NOT required to be licensed in our
county.) Licenses will be issued upon receipt of a current rabies
vaccination certificate and the licensing fee. Please note that first
year licenses (for puppies or dogs with no previous vaccination history) are
only issued as a one year license. All other licenses, excepting
stock/hunt pack and kennel licenses, may be issued as either one or
three year licenses. License fees are as follows:
Altered Dog 1 Year $15
Altered Dog 3 Year $30
Unaltered Dog 1 Year $30
Unaltered Dog 3 Year $60
Stock/Hunt Pack 1 Year Only $50
For
information on licensing service animals or obtaining a kennel or pack
license, please call our office directly so that our staff can assist you.
Licenses
can be obtained by either mailing your rabies certificate and fee to Glenn
County Animal Control, 543 West Oak Street, Willows, CA 95988, stopping by
our office Monday-Friday 8:00pm-5:00pm, or online through our portal.
Dogs not licensed within 60 days of the date the vaccination is given will be
subject to a $10 late fee.
LOST AND
MISSING ANIMALS:
If you
have lost or found a pet or livestock, please call our non-emergency dispatch
line 530-934-6431 to make a report.
You can view impounded animals here on our portal or on our facebook

your animal be taken into our County Impound, you will need to come to our
office in order to pay the appropriate impound fee and obtain an impound

at a separate facility--call the office for details). Once all fees are
paid, your animal will be released to you. Impound fees are as follows:
