Moving can be a stressful event in your life, but moving with a pet can be even worse. Let the City of Little Canada make things simple for you by providing all pet license needs in one location. Licenses can be purchased at City Hall. No licenses are required for cats. For dogs, however, a certificate of rabies vaccination is needed, a proof of spayed or neutered is needed (if applicable) and $20 for a two year license. The cost of the license is $5 less if you pet is spayed or neutered. For more information call the city's animal services at (651) 766-4029.
