Animal Control & Nuisance/Ordinance Enforcement

Officer Levi Wallace

Licensing must be completed before the end of the year for the following year.  If you fail to license your pet before the close of the business day on December 31st, you will be charged a $22.00 late fee for licensing all dogs.  You will need to bring proof of rabies vaccination and spaying or neutering with you to register your pet.  If you have any questions, call Smithfield City at (435) 563-6226.

**It's important to not delay your search.  State law allows any impounded animal to be euthanized after five days.  It is important to register your dog or cat and make sure they are wearing their tags at all times.  This helps officers quickly identify lost animals and return them to their owners, often without taking the animal to the impound facility.
