WV Code §19-20-2 states that it is the duty of the Assessor to collect a  yearly head tax on each dog 6 months of age or older by June 30.  The fee is $3.00 per dog.  You will need to include a check or money order (made payable to the Raleigh County Assessor, no cash please) with your assessment form.  Your dog tags will be mailed to the address listed on your assessment form. Complete and mail as directed.  All current tags are void as of June 30th of the following year.   The Raleigh County Assessor’s Office conducts mobile Anti Rabies Clinics every June in various areas of Raleigh County.  Dog tags can also be purchased at these clinics.   If you purchase tags at the clinic, veterinarian’s office or online application, do not fill out dog information on your assessment form.
