Online Dog Licensing
What You Need to Get Started
- A PDF of your dog's rabies certificate. This is required to be uploaded.
- Optional: Your dog's microchip number and microchip issuer (Home Again, 24 Petwatch, Avid, etc) for free microchip registration in the Maine Dog Licensing Database and with 24 PetWatch. Please note you will receive email from 24 PetWatch following registration, but no further action is required.
Important Notes:
- You must create a customer account using the link below the login screen.
- If you get a message saying you already are in the system, your town pre-loaded your information. Please email animal.welfare@maine.gov for your account number.
- When entering your home and mailing address, enter your zip code and use the city that automatically populates. For example, 04901 will default to Waterville, even if you live in Fairfield.
