Comprising a team of highly trained officers with specialized study in everything from equine science to criminal justice, the Department of Animal Welfare is dedicated to ensuring the humane treatment of all animals within our community.

Our compassionate staff care for 500+ animals each day. Many of these animals are in need of special medial care including antibiotics, heartworm disease treatment, lyme disease treatment, amputations and specialized life-saving surgeries.
