Dogs and domesticated cats must be vaccinated for rabies by four months of age by a licensed veterinarian. A copy of the vaccination certification, signed by the veterinarian and including the veterinarians' license number, must be presented when purchasing a dog tag. The certification of vaccination must be marked spayed or neutered in order to purchase an unsexed tag. If you are purchasing a kennel tag you must present the certifications of vaccination for all dogs kept in the kennel.
