Answers:
You may obtain a license by visiting the Village Hall during their normal business hours or at the Police Department on Saturdays between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. A short application needs to be filled out and then a license will be given to you that same day. A current rabies inoculation certificate number is required with each dog license application. There is no fee for the license.
Q. What do I do if I have a wild animal on my property?
The Bloomingdale Police Department does not respond to wild animal complaints on private property. Removal of animals from private property is the responsibility of the property owner. Police personnel do not handle complaints regarding wild animals unless there is a clear and immediate threat to public health, safety, or welfare. Check out our Living With Wildlife section of this website for helpful hints, and available resources.

Q. What should I do if I see a stray dog?
