An anonymous person reported a cat stuck in a storm drain at Brookside and Ridgeview on the Lost Pets page. We have encouraged them to report it immediately but I wanted to follow up and report it as well, since the matter appears urgent due to the duration of entrapment and weather conditions. I also thought that this might be a multidisciplinary solution type of situation! Thank you so much.
Resident at 2730 N. Smith Pike leaves 2 pitbull mix dogs unattended in non-fenced backyard, dogs are very protective and are often left to roam the neighborhood unleashed and unattended. These dogs are constantly entering multiple neighbors yards, barking, stopping traffic on N. Smith Pike. Someone has already called the Sheriff to speak to owner about this issue.
There are snakes and at least one skunk in this yard. We've been trying to walk our pets down the sidewalk and the snakes come out of this yard into the sidewalk area. The skunks are living in the back yard area in this yard.
Three dogs are left outside from very early in the morning to late at night. unsure if they have food or water but if they do, it is sure gone mid morning or day. it has been an extremely hot summer and there is no shade for them ever. the owner goes outside very seldomly to yell and cuss at the dogs as if they are doing anything bad. please help these poor babies.
There's a dead squirrel on the street in front of this address.
looking for resolution for case # 184494 sent to Virgil Sauder.
There is a tan dog that belongs to the house at the corner of S. Madison St. and Coolidge Dr. It is outside of the house, unleashed at least 2-3 times a week. The dog is sometimes aggressive to pedestrians and cyclists who pass by the house. I bike to work a couple of times a week and it has followed me for a couple of blocks and growls. I have seen it growl and chase pedestrians. I have tried talking to one of the individuals that lives there about the animal and they just became upset at me. The dog sometimes wanders off their property and down the half of the block into my yard and into my and my neighbor's yards. They send their middle school aged daughter down the street to get the animal and she comes into other peoples yards and back yards to get the animal. The dog does not come to her so just ends up chasing it back home. This has been taking place all summer since late May/early June.
LOCATED AT 212 N SHEFFIELD DR IN PARK RIDGE EAST. This neighbor continuously has pans of food on the ground. Sometimes it is birdseed, but it is currently cat food and has also been cheetoh balls. Walking by, we have witnessed many animals, other than birds and most often NOT birds, eating out of these pans. So many deer, groundhogs, raccoons, skunks, cats. I am not looking for someone to necessarily get a fine, but I do know they’re aware of the deer feeding ordinance, but they have continued to do so so more education seems necessary about the harmful effects of this practice. There are pans in the front of the yard and also around back behind their garden. The dead grass all over the yard makes it a parent how much feeding has occurred over the years.
209 N. Sheffield persistent dog barking.
