Animal Control Services
Animal Control Services’ first priority is the health and safety of the general public. We respond to public requests to pick-up and impound stray dogs and stray animals that have been confined; removal of injured wildlife, removal of companion animals and large wildlife animal carcasses from public and private property; and transportation of injured companion animals for emergency veterinary services (service fees may apply). In addition to responding to public inquiries and requests, we provide various tools to keep you and your pet safe such as educational information, licensing, and lost and found services.
Below is a complete list of Animal Control’s services and resources:
