Athens County Auditor Jill Davidson reminds all dog owners that Tuesday, Jan. 31, is the last day to purchase 2023 dog licenses without a penalty.
The penalties are stiff for not purchasing your dog license on time. The cost to purchase a dog license will double after the deadline. This can be a significant burden for those dog owners that have multiple pets. The auditor does not have the authority to waive penalties for any reason after the deadline. Licensing your dog is required by state law.

Dog licenses can also be purchased in person at the County Auditor’s office and also the Athens County Dog Shelter.
