Pet Licenses

River Forest requires that dogs and cats be registered with the Village. Tags can be purchased for $10 at Village Hall and are valid for one year.

All dogs and cats must have a current rabies vaccination.

If a stray dog is found wearing a River Forest dog tag, the Police Deparment will return the dog to your residence without first taking it to an animal shelter.

If your dog utilizes the parks and parkways, please be courteous and clean up after your pet. Your assistance in keeping the Village's parkways clean and free from debris is greatly appreciated.
