Dog Licensing Questions?
Yes. All dogs five (5) months of age or older must be licensed.
The most important reason is to prevent the spreading of rabies. Rabies is a health threat and can be fatal for humans if it is not treated properly. Animal licensing helps Washburn County monitor compliance with state rabies vaccination laws. A license helps to protect your furry loved one should they become lost! When your dog has its license attached to its collar, its assigned license number is all that is necessary for our law enforcement officers, and the County to identify the dog’s owner.
Please contact the Village of Minong Police Department or contact Washburn County to make a report. Village of Minong Police Chief: Marshal Savitski or Patrol Officer Lucas Shepard Phone: 715-466-2266. minongpd@villageofminongwi.gov.
