Why
license
your pet?
•It’s a free ride home. If your licensed pet
is found in Minneapolis, it will get a ride home
instead of to the animal shelter
•Your pet is more likely to get back home.
Licensed pets are three times more likely than
unlicensed pets to go home again
•Prompt medical attention.
If your pet is found injured, it
will get medical care right away
•It’s the law for dogs, cats,
ferrets and rabbits
•It helps other pets.
