Chances of it happening ar slim but it has happened and they do this randomly. Whether they fine you or give you a warning is probably up to them but the fines can be high. Many Vet offices will sell the County Licenses. I know mine did as a courtesy to their clients but they add a fee. Best to go to the county to get them and some counties have 3 year ones which saves you $$. A Rabies certificate and or tag is the law!

Sumter County requires that you bring in a rabies vaccination certificate in order to pay for the pet license. If your pet has been spayed/neutered it is $5 for a year. In order words, it costs about the same a your coffee.
