Why isn't a 2007 license number in the web Pet License Information Database?

There are three steps for the license information to be included in the web database and there could be three reasons why it is not available.

1. We did not receive the rabies certificate from the veterinarian. Some veterinarians mail us the rabies certificates every few weeks, some take longer. Once we receive the rabies certificate, we enter the current information into the Division's computer database.
2. Data entry staff has not entered the information into the computer database because we have a backlog of certificates to enter. There are times when we receive thousands of certificates in a short period and cannot enter the information fast enough.
3. There is one more step before the license information will be available on the web database. Computer staff takes the current information from the Division's computer database then transfers this information into the web database. Staff updates the web database on a regular basis and it may be possible the 2007 license information will be included in the next update.

Even if the license information is not available on the web database, we can still find the information the old fashioned way by finding the actual rabies certificate in our files or in the veterinarian's files.

Call our License Coordinator during business hours at (954) 359-1318 to find the information on a 2007 license or if you have any other questions about licensing.
