    Give the gift of an Animal Control dog this Christmas. By doing so, the dog and the recipient will be grateful.

    Can’t make that commitment? Every dog has a stocking hanging from their kennel door waiting on treats for the holidays.

    In the past week, officers brought in four dogs with one reclaimed, two adopted and two going to Ozzie to the Rescue. 

    Animal Control Officers and volunteers alike hope folks may be willing to open their home and their hearts to the dogs in their facility.

    Community members are welcome to make item or monetary donations and may also walk dogs to help them get exercise.

    Pet owners should make sure to properly tag and identify pets to prevent them being picked up unnecessarily. It is also advised to keep microchip information up to date. 

    Hours of operation at Animal Control are Monday - Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon at the facility. After hours the officers follow up with community concerns and respond to stray dog calls.

    Call 706-632-3845 for information on any of the dogs at Animal Control, to donate, volunteer or to see if a lost family pet has been picked up.
