    Animal Care & Control

         

    Our Animal Control Officers picking up a dog caught in a trap.

    What we do

    Our Animal Care and Control Officers enforce the dogs laws in Montgomery County and keep the public safe from animal-related health or safety dangers. They also educate the public and teach pet owners to be more responsible citizens.

    Animal Care and Control Officers respond to requests for service from the public, police departments, etc. Routine responses include sick or injured dogs, stray dogs, loose owned pets, and bite animals. Animal Care and Control Officers will respond to your needs in uniform and a county vehicle.

    • Location of dog
    • Exact address of owner
    • Time owner is usually home
    • Time dog is normally running loose
