ANIMAL CONTROL
Sgt. Doug Blood, Animal Control
Officer
William Mansfield, Assistant
The Animal Control and Dog Officer handles complaints regarding stray,
abandoned, neglected, and problem dog issues.
Dog licenses are obtained from the Town Clerk. We have
approximately one thousand dogs in North Brookfield. It is very important to
keep the current license tag on your dog. The dog licensing is computerized and
the current license number will allow for a quick resolve to any dog issues.
Please license your dog.
Also please keep in mind that your dog must be under your
control at all times. Many of the calls received pertain to dogs on other
residents' property and complaints of excessive barking. It is important to be
considerate of your neighbors.
We had three areas of feral cats taken care of in 2006. The
spay wagon came out from the Boston Animal Rescue League. Twenty-three (23) cats
were neutered and released per the program.
The dog kennel needs improvement. We continually have a
problem with the water supply freezing and the heater needs to be replaced. Any
donation to the dog gift fund would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks to all for
the donations received at Hannafords. I look forward to your continued support.
The plans for a new kennel are underway and I will be seeking funds in the
upcoming year.
