办证信息
Multnomah县动物服务中心 (Multnomah County Animal Services)* 要求有宠物证,这对社区、宠物主人和动物都有利。 这些好处包括:
- 走丢的宠物很快就能与主人重聚。只要在网上输入宠物证号码,就很容易找到宠物主人。Multnomah县每年将大约2000只走丢的宠物归还给它们的主人。
- 为家庭和宠物提供更安全的社区环境。宠物证费用将用于支持针对虐待宠物、忽视宠物、流浪宠物、攻击性犬只和咬人报告进行的现场服务和调查。
- 为无家可归的动物提供一个安全的庇护所。 MCAS收容所每年为大约6000只动物提供食物、医疗、住所、训练、寄养和领养服务。

License LookupPet Loss Safety Net
Dogs and cats with a license and microchip in Multnomah County are over 3.3 times more likely to be reunited with their owners than pets without.
Instant identification
A license tag provides an immediate way for neighbors, finders, and Animal Services officers to identify your pet and contact you if they ever wander off. A registered microchip ID is your failsafe if a collar comes off - ask your local vet about microchip services.
Safe From Rabies
A licensed pet is a vaccinated pet. Licenses and rabies vaccination go hand in hand by design in Oregon to maintain the herd immunity coverage we need to keep our population of pets AND people safe from rabies.
Have your rabies vaccination certificate ready to upload when you license. Ask a participating veterinarian about licensing to make a one-stop-shop when you bring your pet in for vaccines.
A Ticket Home
Animal Services Officers may be able to bring your lost pet right back to you without ever needing to spend a night in a shelter if your pet has a current license tag.
Support Your Local Shelter Pets
A license keeps your individual pet safe and pays it forward to support the other lost and found pets of your community.
