City of Richmond residents must purchase an annual license for each pet they own. The cost is $10.00; licenses may be purchased online by clicking this link to download the application, or visit Richmond Animal Care & Control. The license tag should be attached to your pet’s collar. If your pet goes missing and is found by an individual or is brought to an animal shelter, the license information registered with the City of Richmond will help reunite you and your pet. We strongly recommend that you have your pet micro-chipped. In the event that your pet goes missing and loses its collar, your contact information will be intact for scanners used at vets and animal shelters.
