    Get your 2019 Dog License


    Charley Goddu, a 10-year old poodle mix, received the first dog license of 2019 at the San Juan County Auditor’s office.

    All dogs in San Juan County are required to be licensed annually.  License fees are $15 for spayed or neutered dogs, and $40 for “natural” dogs.  A photo of the dog can be added to the database for $5.  Dogs must be licensed each year by March 31 to avoid a $10 late fee.
