This evening, 6/22/20, approximately 7:30pm, my wife, 9 yr old aughter and I were walking on the streets in our neighborhood (Grandview), when an off leash pit bull charged and tried to attack our 10 month old English Springer. The pit bull was , again, off leash and it’s owner did not have any control of this animal. Somehow, the pit bull kept narrowly missing in its attack of our puppy but knocked me down during the melee. This could have had bad outcomes. Our other dog, a 4-yr old female Springer, was also walking with us, not to mention my daughter and wife. I and my family were quite shaken up. I’d like Animal Control to talk to the pit bull owner. Their address is 3620 E Grandview Dr, Bloomington 47408. Being attacked on the street is dangerous. That dog should not be off leash and able to charge at people and their dogs on public streets. We have an older population in our neighborhood. Only by grace did my dogs and family not get hurt.

A small white poodle dog has been running around the Blue Ridge and Matlock Heights neighborhoods these past few days. It appears to be wearing a collar and tag. We've tried to catch it, but it runs away before we can get to it. This is the location of the last sighting (moments ago).

There are barking dogs at this address all day long starting very early in the morning. It's especially bad between 8am-12pm. They need to be forced to put up a solid fence around their backyard so their dogs can't see the street or backyard neighbors. When the inhabitants of this house were addressed by the neighbors they threatened to physically harm anyone complaining about their dogs. The police were called last year due to the physical threats. There must be some ordinance about barking dogs all day long. Can you make them put up a solid fence so their dogs can't see anyone who is walking by on the street or in their own backyard?

This van was parked outside my building from at least 9pm (12/11) till sometime after 5am (12/12) on. we thought we had heard dogs in the car a little after nine and went to check it out and couldn’t hear anything. Around 3:20am we heard them again and found that they were in this car and had been since the car was parked. The police arrived and the dogs weren’t barking so they wouldn’t do any thing . It was 30 degrees last night and we have no way of knowing what kind of condition they were in however leaving them caged in a car in 30 degree weather is cruel. This car regularly parks here and the owner is unknown to me. The license plate is GW5522 and it’s a white dodge grand caravan with FDSA stickers above the gas cap

Woman living in an RV in the back yard is operating an open air cat kennel without a permit. She also provides food, water or shelter to a colony of feral cats without being registered with the City of Bloomington Animal Care and Control Department or its designee. There are 3 walk in cages housing cats in the back yard. I have a video illustrating this if you will contact me I can share it. I am an Environmental Health Specialist with the Monroe County Health Department.
