Q.   I recently renewed my King County pet license. Is it still good?
A.   Yes. Your new King County pet license will be good for 12 months as usual. When it is time to renew, you will receive a Metro Animal Services renewal form.

Q.    Do I need to replace my King County pet license tag?
A.    No. When you renew your license, you will be sent a new Metro Animal Services pet license tag. In the meantime, your King County pet license tag is valid.  

Q.    I no longer am able to keep my pet. Should I take it to the Kent Animal Shelter?
A.    No. The Algona and Pacific no longer contract with the Kent Animal Shelter. You should call the shelter – 253-841-5595 – for assistance, or take your pet to the Metro Animal Services Shelter in Puyallup (1200 39th Ave SE).

Q.    My pet is lost. Where should I go to look for it?
A.    It is a good idea to look at as many shelters in the area as possible. Many shelters have information about lost pets online. Others have recorded phone lines you can access before going in person. If your pet was picked up by an animal control officer in the Algona or Pacific, it would be taken to the Metro Animal Services Shelter in Puyallup (1200 39th Ave SE).  More
