It says that the "municipal clerk or other official designated to license the dogs" shall not issue any license or official metal registration tag unless the dog owner provides proof that the dog has been inoculated against rabies with a vaccine having the duration of immunity that extends through at least TEN of the TWELVE months of the licensing period. Dogs with a duration of immunity against rabies that expires prior to the tenth month of the licensing period shall be revaccinated prior to issuance of a license.
THIS MEANS THAT NO LICENSE SHOULD BE ISSUED IN THE CURRENT VACCINATION EXPIRES PRIOR TO NOVEMBER 1, 2010.
