DOGS
Attorney General Rules On
Credit For Dog Vaccination
Fee
The following ruling of the At
torney General relative to tax
credit for fees paid for rabies
vaccination for dogs given to B.
G. Tharrington applying to Frank
lin County may be of" interest to
dog owners of Franklin County:
Hon. Tharrington,
Inez, North Carolina.
Dear Sir:
You state in your letter of
May 13 that in Warren County a
credit of 75c is allowed on the
dog tax when a certificate of vac
cination is presented to the sher
iff or tax collector of the county,
and that in FranKlin County on
ly 50c credit is allowed. You
desire to know whether this dif
ference is permissible under the
laws relating to the vaccination
of dogs for rabies.
Section 1 of Chapter 259 of
the Public Laws of 1941, which
strikes out all of Section 9 of
Chapter 11 of the Public Laws of
1935, provides:
"Sec. 7. Amend Section nine
by striking out all of said sec
tion and Inserting in lieu thereof
the following:
'Sec. 7. That the rabies in
spector shall collect from the ow
ner of each dog vaccinated as
provided for in Section five, not
more than seventy-flve cents for
each dog, the same to be credi
ted on the dog tax when certifi
cate of vaccination is . presented
to the sherifT or tax collector of
said county. Any owner who
fails to have his dof; vaccinated
at the time the rabies inspector
is in the township in which the
oiyner resides as provided in Sec
tion five, shall have said dog
vaccinated 111 aix-uruamx mm
Section eight and shall pay the
rabies inspector the additional
sum of twenty-five cents to be
retained by him for each dog
treated: Provided, that in Edge
combe, Wilson and Nash Coun
ties, there shall be charged only
fifty cents for each dog treated on
the days prescribed for such
treatment in Section five of this
Act, the same to be credited on
tbc dog tax when certificate of
such vaccination is presented to
the sherilT or tax collector: Fur
ther, provided, that in cases
where dogs are vaccinated in ac
cordance with Section eight of
this Act. the total charge for
such treatment shall not exceed
seventy-five cents, only fifty
cents of which shall be credited
on such d^g tax.'
Tou can readily see from the
provisions of this section that
the owner of a dog la entitled to
credit for whatever he pays for
the vaccination of bis dog, not
exceeding 75c, when he presents
tbe certificate of vaccination to
the' sheriff or tax collector of the
county It is possible that there
ls| a difference in the amount
charged In Franklin County from

We do not have copy of Sec.
8, of this law before us but, the
provision at the end of Sec. 7,
under "Further provided" leaves
a serious doubt as to the amount
to be credited on taxes when
paid. Giving the benefit of the
doubt to the tax collector it is
easy to consider 50 cents the
limit.
