To own a dog: You need a licence.

What ? In what country ?

In most areas in the USA you need to get a Rabies tag. You pay the county (or whatever) a fee and get a certificate and a tag to put on your dog collar. Both are numbered and can be used to get your information if your dog is picked up by animal control. They don't always call it a license, but that's basically what it is.

Oh

In europe we have subdermal microchip implants for that (the animal can't lose it and doesn't need to wear a collar). Also they aren't mandatory but practically every pet that is allowed to go outside has one.

We have those too, but for a different/backup purpose. The tag is government issued and must be regularly renewed to show you're keeping up on vaccines and shit. The subdermal microchip (if the animal has one) is used for lost animals if there isn't a visible tag.
