Dog Licenses
The Teaneck Health Department would like to remind dog owners that current dog licenses expire on December 31st. Dog owners have until February 28th to renew their dog licenses without any penalty.
Residents who have new dogs or who need renewal applications may do so by using SDL (our online service portal), submitting a paper application, or visiting us in-person. Renewal applications are also mailed in early December.
Free rabies shots can be arranged through the Bergen Veterinary Hospital at (201) 837-3470, or the Bergen County Animal Shelter at (201) 229-4600 (call for available clinic dates). Per NJ State guidelines rabies shots must be valid through November 1, 2026 for a 1-Year License and through November 1, 2028 for a 3-Year License.
Applications and appropriate fees must be received by February 28, 2026 to avoid any penalties and/or fines. (Cash/MO/Check – payable to the Township of Teaneck) – For online submissions, please visit SDL (our online service portal).
The fee is $12 for spayed/neutered and $15 for non-spayed/non-neutered. As of March 1st, a $15 late fee will be added.
