Upon application, senior citizens, the blind and disabled persons shall be allowed a 50% reduction on the above licence fees, excluding Kennel Licences, Late Fees and replacement tags. A Veterinarian's Certificate must be produced for the reduced rate for neutered/spayed dogs.

Dog Licensing and Registration
By-law #92-04 states that "every owner of a dog shall, within thirty (30) days following possession, cause the dog to be licensed and registered with the City of Cambridge for the period which shall expire on the last day in December of the current year and shall thereafter annually on or before the 28th day of February in each year."

Tags are valid from January 01 to December 31 of each year. New or renewal tags purchased from November 01 to December 31, inclusive, of any year continue to be valid for the next calendar year.
When the current year remains unpaid, fees submitted will be applied to that year regardless of the date submitted. In such a case, late fees will be levied.

Dog tags are non-transferable and non-refundable.

Dogs Running at Large
The By-law also states that every owner of a dog, who fails to have it licenced or allows it to run at large, shall upon conviction, forfeit and pay a penalty not exceeding fifty dollars exclusive of costs for each such offence.

Online tag purchases
At this time only renewals are available on line. Tags for new dogs must be purchased at the pound at 1660 Dunbar.
