(2) The county shall, at the time of issuing a license, supply the licensee, without charge, with a suitable identification tag, which shall be fastened by the licensee to a collar and kept on the dog at all times when not in the immediate possession of the licensee.

(3) The license fees in subsection (1) of this section do not apply to dogs that are considered inventory under ORS 307.400 and are not permitted to run at large.

(5) The county shall keep a record of dog licenses.

(6) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section or ORS 609.015, when the keeper of a dog obtains a license for the dog, that license is valid and is in lieu of a license for the dog required by any other city or county within this state, for the remainder of the license period:

(a) If the keeper of the dog changes residence to a city or county other than the city or county in which the license was issued; or

(b) If the keeper of the dog transfers the keeping of the dog to a person who resides in a city or county other than the city or county in which the license was issued.
