All dogs have to have a current license and rabies tag, here in Florida and everywhere else. The vet will surely mention it, ours did, and we had a current license from our previous county and registered our dog again. Another thing that seems to go unchecked is that all dogs in most counties, including Marion, Lake and Sumter are subject to a leash law, in other words, unless they are in a "proper" dog park, they must be kept on a leash. The open spaces in the villages are not dog parks and one day all these folk who allow their dogs to run free will get a ticket no doubt. Further thing is that you can be charged with neglect etc in Florida if you leave your dog in your car. Bad enough with leaving babies in cars, dogs suffer the same and die. Surely everyone an afford the princely sum of $5 to keep your dog legal!
