If you live in the county of Madera (address will usually be 5 digits) you will license your pet with the Madera shelter. If you live in the city of Madera or Chowchilla you license with your police departments. All altered dogs (spayed/neutered) the license fees for county residents is $10 per year, unaltered dogs are $50 per year. If your dog is altered (spayed/neutered) and you are 65+ yrs old the license is $5 per year. No discounts on unaltered dogs. You can only license your dog for as long as the rabies vaccine is good for i.e. 1 year rabies - 1 year license, 3 year rabies- 1, 2, or 3 year license. Any further questions please contact the Madera Animal Shelter at 675-7891.
You can apply...generally its only $8 for altered dogs, but considerably higher for unaltered dogs. Plus, the dog needs to be current on all vaccines. If you have SSI, Snap or medi-cal, you should qualify for a discount and possible discount voucher to get the dog altered if needed.
Yesterday they had at the fairgrounds for animals. They usually have a deal going on once a month. Sometimes they have deal's at PetSmart or Petco. You just have to go online and research it. Or call the shelter. They'll have the info you need.
