All residents with dogs need to be aware that Pennsylvania state law requires all dogs 3 months of age and older must be licensed. The Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement will be visiting neighborhoods inspecting dog licenses, and dog owners unable to produce proof of licensure will be fined.

Licenses are valid for the county in which the owner resides and need to be renewed yearly. They are valid Jan. 1-Dec. 31 of the current year.

Owners of unlicensed dogs are subject to fines up to $300.

The Allen Township dog park is temporarily closed, tentatively through the end of April. This closure is due to the amount of precipitation the area has experienced during the past few months.
