Pursuant to Section 174.052, Wisconsin Statutes, notice is hereby
given to all owners of dogs in Fond du Lac County that rabies
vaccinations and dog licenses are required under the statutes.

Vaccination by a veterinarian against rabies of all dogs is required
(Section 95.21 (2)) within 30 days after the dog reaches 4 months of
age, and re-vaccinated before the certificate expires or within three
years of the previous vaccination. Notice is hereby further given that
evidence that the dog is currently immunized against rabies must be
presented before a license can be issued. To qualify for the minimum
license fee for neutered males or spayed females, presentation of
evidence attesting to same must be presented when applying for the
license.

A minimum late fee of $5.00 shall be assessed the owner of each dog 5
months of age or over who fails to obtain a dog license by April 1 of
each year, or within 30 days of acquiring ownership on or before the
dog reached licensable age. The minimum late fee may be raised by
municipal action.

Any owner who fails to have a dog vaccinated against rabies as
required by statute may be required to forfeit not less than $50.00
nor more than $100.00.
