Our animal control officers are trained professionals who pick up loose and stray animals. Their duties include setting live traps, processing animal bite case and investigating cruelty. They also assist the public with any other animal issues. In addition to field duties, the officers assist with cleaning the shelter and providing care for impounded animals. Our staff prides itself on community education and is available to assist or speak at various community programs.
Important Things to Remember:
Do not pet unfamiliar animals
Do not tease animals
Do not surprise any animal
Do not touch a sleeping animal
Do not bother a dog while it is eating
Do not leave small children alone with a dog
Animal Bites:
1. Immediately wash wound with soap and water.
2. Check with your physician for treatment advice.
3. Report the bite to the Local Animal Control Agency.
Animal control personnel are trained professionals that can apprehend the biting animal and assure that it is placed into rabies quarantine.
4. Consult your physical or local/ state public health officials if questions arise about the need for rabies treatment.
