Brown/white bully mix constantly barks. It has jumped the fence twice already, I am worried one of the young kids in the area will be attacked. This dog is aggressive when inside the fence, not managed or contained properly. Owners have been spoke too by numerous neighbors about their concerns for the behaviors of this animal. They have said it was "rescued" from being a bate dog.
A deer jumped my fence to attack my dog and ran up onto my patio before I slam the door shut. My dog rolled and made it safely in the house. I'm tired of my neighbors in Winslow farm feeding the deer and I'm willing to take action to stop the deer from killing my family. Take action or I will.
In the ditch by our mailbox is a box with someone's dead cat. Not sure whose it is or where it came from or what to do about it. I thought Animal Control might be able to dispose of it? Thank you.
Unleashed dog barking viciously, following dog walkers into and down the street.
Owner has been gone for a long time and dog is trapped inside and starving.
Dogs are kept outside on the porch for 8+ hours a day with no shelter, food, or water. They constantly bark, wanting to get away from the cold and rain. When the owner does let them in it’s only 1 dog at a time and it’s never for very long.
4231 W Lilac has a male black cat in danger; at one time I assumed and told the Animal Control Officer Eubanks that "Jack" was ok. He has swollen eye shut, signs of malnourishment and neglect by the owners at 4231 W Lilac; this family appears to be low income and have struggles; they are taking care of this cat; the cat "Jack" is in danger of more neglect and animal cruelty unless, an offcer approaches the family and sees for themself. Since the last time I spoke with Officer Eubanks, Jack the cat has deteriorated drastically. Also, I was unable to place the Momma Tortiose Shell, the good news is that she was not pregnant; she just looked like it. I have placed an ad in the paper hopefully, to seek her a new home. The tortiose momma kitty, I have been feeding, providing medical care and human interaction, she is very sweet but, it afraid to come into my home because she appears to be very afraid of other cats. So, hopefully someone will answer my ad to give her a loving home, she no longer has a cat meow voice, it is gone, she has had some trauma from the last time animal control was not able to pick her up and she was in a cage too long and that traumatized her. Her voice has not returned. Her's eyes show her pain and she loves being held, this is one sweet cat, sadly she will most likely die on my porch or underneath my home. There are not enough people around that care enough about the strays. Thanks to Nadine Eubanks and her perseverance in at least capturing two other strays at my address and getting to the facility for care.
Residents have two very large dogs, which they let out of the house unleashed. Yard is not fenced. Last night they attacked another dog in the neighborhood.
There is a homeless camp north of Gordon Pike and east of the Rail Trail. I think it is on City jurisdiction. Someone there has a dog that barks constantly. It has been barking this evening (12/29/23) for 30+ minutes at least. This has become a recurring problem. This dog needs to be stopped from barking and this homeless camp needs to be cleared out. All of the camps along the Rail Trail need to be cleared out. It is creating a danger for trail users as the safety of the trail is declining. Please enforce the rules for the noise issues with the dog and the improper camping and creating a nuisance and a hazard along the trail. Maybe clean up the south end of Switchyard Park while you are at it? Make the trails safe for everyone again. This situation with allowing the homeless camps has gotten out of hand and needs to be cleared up before it continues to get worse.
Skunk roadkill along Henderson & Atwater. The smell is stretching on for blocks, and is a bit of a traffic disturbance.
