All Things Dog: Remember to purchase your 2013 dog tags

Dog Warden Julie Lyle along with Lucas County Board of County Commissioners President Carol Contrada and Lucas County Auditor Anita López would like to remind loving dog owners in the county to purchase their 2013 tags before the January 31^st deadline.  Dog tags are required by law for all dogs over 3 months of age.  Licensing serves to protect your dog and will identify the owner so that the dog can be returned home if lost.  Dog tags for 2013 can be purchased until January 31, 2013 at the Auditor’s Office, Lucas County Dog Warden, or area agents.

Winners from the Lucas County Loves Dogs contest will be announced January 22, 2013 at the Dog Warden’s office.  Four lucky winners will receive prizes from local area businesses.  Purchasing a dog tag entitles dog owners to be entered to win in the next drawing.  Visit the Lucas County Loves Dogs website to see the winners. 

Don’t forget about the contest for 2013’s #1 Dog.  To promote responsible pet care and ownership throughout Lucas County, dog owners can nominate their dog for the contest by submitting an essay on why I Love my Lucas County Dog.  The winning dog will receive the #1 tag, a complimentary 2013 tag, and their pet’s picture on all 2014 dog tag renewal forms. 
A complete list of contest rules can be found on the Auditor’s web page www.co.lucas.oh.us/auditor
