Where do officers take stray animals?

Stray animals are picked up by our Community Service Officers (CSO) and are taken to Coon Rapids Animal Humane Society located at 1411 Main Street NE in Coon Rapids. If you lost a pet without tags, please contact the kennel at 952-435-7738 to see if it is in their care. 

Owners are responsible for any fees or costs incurred while at the Humane Society. The City of Fridley is not responsible for the costs of housing, feeding or care while being housed.

Lifetime Dog License 

The City of Fridley requires all dogs over the age of six months be licensed and vaccinated against rabies. We do not require cats to be licensed.

By applying for a license, the owner acknowledges that it is their responsibility to keep the dog’s rabies vaccination current once the license is issued. Fridley dog licenses are issued for the lifetime of the dog, or until its ownership is transferred within Fridley. The license fee is $25.

Multiple Pet Licenses

A lifetime dog license is required for all dogs over the age of 6 months. Please apply for each lifetime dog license prior to applying for the multiple pet license, if you haven't done so already. You will be required to provide the tag number for each dog. A multiple pet license is for owners who have four or more pets.
