Animal Control & Neglected Pets

Case Date:
9/11/2018

I live on E. Kerr Creek Rd., a little bit east outside of Bloomington. at around the 6000 block of E Kerr. Creek Rd., there is a house that has three dogs, two of which are pitbulls. While I myself have had pitbulls in the past, these two dogs look extremely scary. Even to this point, I would not care that they are scary, as much as care about the fact that they are behind a wire fence that it looks like they could easily devour if they wanted. I have no desire to get the owner(s) in trouble or to get the dogs taken away, however, every time I leave the house it looks like they're going to jump over the tiny little fence and kill me. I wanted to bring this to the attention to someone, with the hope that something could get done. I absolutely desire to stay anonymous. Thank you.

I would like to compliment the Animal Control department for a job well done. I live in College Mall Apts. on E. 2nd St. near the Mall. There was a clearly injured rabbit hunched down at the play ground area for over 8 hrs that wouldn't move even when approached. The shoulder of the rabbit seemed dislocated and I was afraid a child would try to pick it up, causing severe pain to the animal who would seriously claw or bite the child. I decided to call Animal Control and an officer was sent out who arrived quickly and did a thorough search of the playground area. What we saw when she arrived was one rabbit, somewhat unafraid of human proximity, but hopping around in a reasonably normal fashion. The spot was clear where the injured rabbit had been sitting. Apparently what happened was the rabbit managed, after hours of painful effort, to nudge its shoulder joint back into place, and was just trying things out again as the officer arrived. No way to anticipate that happening. Having the Animal Control officers respond to these situations that may seem innocuous is the right policy. Things could easily have turned out differently and the officer's response could have saved a serious injury to a child, as this occurred exactly at the playground area of College Mall Apts. In a wildlife friendly town like ours, human-animal interactions are very common, and children don't always show the proper caution. Many thanks to that officer and the City. Job well done.

The residents of 2726 S Pinehurst Drive is not leashing their 3 dogs pets per City ordinance. The dogs and their cats are allowed to wander all over the neighborhood, and the streets unleashed and uncontrolled. They are urinating and defecating in the neighbors yards. There have been many times that the dogs have ran into the roads, impeding traffic and or causing issues with other people who are attempting to ride their bikes, run, or escort their young children in wagons, across the street from them.
