For the past few weeks there have been dogs roaming free in this area. I have nearly hit them in the street a couple times and one actually did get hit by a car a few days ago. I think they belong to the big red house in this block. They don't appear to follow and leash or restraint requirements. I am concerned for the animal's continued safety.
There is a dead skunk in the road near Bloomington Paint & Wallpaper on Grimes Ln.
I couldn't reach anyone with Animal Control. There is an owl that appears sick or injured on Forrest Ave. close to 14st. He is by the fire hydrant between two large trees on Forrest. He is not moving when approached. Thanks Jill.
There is a dead possum in the road in front of our house at 1108 S. Rogers St.
Dead squirrel along edge of road next to our driveway (501 E Grimes, driveway is on east side of Palmer). Looks like it was killed and then someone kicked it into our yard. Can someone please take care of this dead animal? Thanks!
I was walking my dog (on leash of course) up the street and all of the sudden a dog that lives at the house 133 Lexington Ave runs at top speed across the yard and into the street and straight for my dog. I started yelling “no” at it which slowed it down and the owner must have heard because they finally called the dog back. It was very scary and my dog was incredibly anxious afterwards. I had seen this dog do a similar behavior to someone else walking a dog while driving home last week. It happened so fast I was very concerned I would’ve accidentally hit the dog had I not seen it when I did. At first I thought this was just a one off accident but now that it has happened to me I realize that this dog does not have any sort of yard containment and is becoming more bold with this behavior. It is a great concern to everyone’s safety including the uncontrolled dog. Please visit the home and explain the safety issue and legality of ensuring their dog is properly contained.
Hi - We don't have recycling services available at our apartment building? Is it possible to drop off these items somewhere? Thank you for your time, Emily

Road kill: a possum seems to have been hit by a car and is lying dead next to the road.
Injured goose, possible broken wing no way of transporting the animal.
