To obtain a license from the Animal Protection Section, you must first have a pre-license inspection performed at the location, this includes mobile facilities, you will be doing business. Please call the Animal Protection office (800-282-5852 ex 4914) to request a pre-license inspection. We will need your address, directions to the place where you plan to do business and a telephone number where you can be reached between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM.
