REPORT CRUELTY
While our primary focus is educating owners about proper care for their animals, we will use all the authority that we have been given to ensure every animal receives care as set forth by the law. Animal cruelty encompasses behavior harmful to animals ranging from neglect to malicious killing. Most cruelty investigated by Humane Officers is unintentional neglect that can be resolved through education. Intentional cruelty, or abuse, is knowingly depriving an animal of food, water, shelter, or veterinary care; or maliciously torturing, maiming, mutilating, or killing an animal.
Animal cruelty investigations do not include barking dogs, noise compaints, or loose animals. If you have a concern with a loud animal, call your local police agency. If you see a loose or an injured animal on the side of the road, call your local animal control.
