Newtown Township, PA - SHOW US YOUR CHAMPIONS
Pennsylvania is a place where people show up — for our families, our pets, our neighborhoods, and for the teams we love.
From the Steelers to the Eagles, the Penguins to the Phillies, to our high school teams and youth leagues, we know what it means to support a team with heart.
The Love Your Dog, License Your Dog campaign invites Pennsylvanians to celebrate their pups as the true champions of their homes — and to join the team who helps protect dogs across the Commonwealth.
Licensing your dog is more than a tag. It’s a symbol of love, responsibility, and being a good neighbor. It funds the statewide safety system — dog wardens, kennel inspectors, shelter reimbursements, disease control, dangerous dog monitoring, and anti–puppy mill enforcement —that protects every dog, not just the ones who have devoted families.
And together, we cheer on our champions — proudly wearing their 2026 license tags and team colors.
Safety Is a Team Sport.
Why Licensing Matters
We know: many modern dog owners use tags, microchips, GPS collars, and other ways to keep tabs on their pup. But keeping track of your dog’s location isn’t the only way of keeping them safe. A dog license protects your pup and your family from dangerous dogs, and it helps protect the pups who don’t have someone cheering for them.
Licensing your dog:
Your dog has you. Some dogs only have the system your license helps fund.
For $10.80 — or $8.80 for seniors and residents with disabilities — responsible dog owners help maintain the safety net that protects Pennsylvanians millions of dogs and communities every single day.
