At the time of making application for a City license, the owner shall furnish to the City a veterinarian’s certificate showing that the dog or cat for which the license is sought has been vaccinated and that such vaccination has not expired. Upon payment of the license fee established pursuant to this chapter, the City shall issue to the owner a license which shall contain the name of the owner, the owner’s place of residence, and a description of the dog or cat. The City shall keep a duplicate of each license issued as a public record. Upon issuance of the license, the City shall deliver or mail to the owner a metal tag with the number of the license and the year in which it was issued. Every pet animal shall wear the tag at all times. Any method may be used to attach the tag to the animal, such as a collar or other suitable device.
