The owner should bring the above paperwork to the City of Plymouth Clerk’s Office to purchase a current license.

There is a fee incurred with the impounding of the dog. There may also be a ticket issued based on the violation that occurred. Owners are responsible for the dogs release and retrieving the animal from the pound. Fee incurred are based on the length of time the dog is impounded as set forth by the Humane Society.
