How much is a dog license in Norwalk?
Connecticut sets dog-license fees by statute (Connecticut General Statutes §22-338), so the cost in Norwalk is the same across the state:
- $8 — for a spayed or neutered dog (proof of spay/neuter required).
- $19 — for an intact (unaltered) dog.
Fees verified against Norwalk's official information. If your dog is newly spayed or neutered, bring the certificate to qualify for the lower rate.
When is the Norwalk dog license due? Late fees
