Greenwood dog licences: fees and how to get one
How do I get a dog licence, and what does it cost?
The City of Greenwood requires a dog licence every year, issued at City Hall. Its Forms and Permits page lists 2022 fees of $15 (January) or $30 (February to December) for a neutered or spayed dog and $25 or $40 for an intact dog. Those fees may be out of date, so confirm with City Hall.

How it works
The City of Greenwood's Forms and Permits page says dog licences are required annually and names City Hall as the place to apply or renew. The page does not state a minimum age for the dog.
The fees on that page are labelled 2022 and the page says fees are subject to change, so they may be out of date. The City's current Fees and Charges Bylaw (No. 1037, 2025) was published only as a scanned image that could not be read, so these amounts could not be checked against it.

- Call City Hall at 250-445-6644 to confirm the current fee and what to bring.
- Apply or renew in person at City Hall, 202 South Government Avenue.
