§ 63-5 Licensing; fees.

A. Any owner or keeper of a dog six months of age or older in the Town of Blackstone shall cause that dog to be licensed as required by MGL c. 140 within the stipulated time.

B. The annual fee for every dog license, except as otherwise provided for by law, shall be $10 unless a certificate of a registered veterinarian who performed the operation that such female dog has been altered and has thereby been deprived of the power of breeding or producing offspring has been shown to the Town Clerk, in which case the fee shall be $6. If the Town Clerk is satisfied that the certification by the veterinarian who altered the dog cannot be obtained, he may accept in lieu thereof a statement under the penalties of perjury by a veterinarian registered describing the dog and stating that he has examined the dog and in his opinion the dog is not capable of breeding or producing offspring by reason of spaying or neutering. Until the veterinarian has examined the dog in question, the license fee for the licensing period shall be at the rate of $10.
