To avoid a penalty, dog owners must purchase 2010 dog tags by February 1, according to Clark County Auditor George Sodders. The cost is $20 and will increase to $40 after the February 1 deadline. A list of locations where tags can be purchased is posted on the auditor’s web page at www.clarkcountyauditor.org, or owners can call 521-1862 for information.
“Registering and licensing your dog is not just the law, it is the only means by which the owner of a lost or injured animal can be located,” Sodders explained. “Protect your pet and buy a license today,” Sodders said.
