A. Every resident in the city who owns, has an interest in, harbors and feeds, or has the care, charge, custody or possession of a dog four months of age or over, and whether such dog is confined or not, shall obtain a San Bernardino County dog license for such a dog. Each dog shall have a current rabies vaccination as evidenced by a valid rabies certificate issued by the veterinarian who performed the vaccination as a requisite to licensing; provided further that rabies vaccination certificate shall not be required if the license is obtained at the time the dog is vaccinated at a county or city low-cost clinic.
B. While a dog is being used as a guard dog within the city, it must have a San Bernardino County dog license and the license tag must be securely fixed to the dog’s collar regardless of where the owner resides and whether a license has been obtained for that jurisdiction. (Ord. 163 § 8(I), 1997)
