'Tis the Season for Giving...and Keeping Our Dog Friends Secure.

Our friendly, local letter carriers at the US Postal Service have implored us to gently, yet firmly, remind our community of the imperative to confine their canine companions. As the festive season approaches, our dedicated couriers will be traversing our neighborhoods from the pre-dawn hours until the twilight descends, laden with a plethora of parcels.

Anticipate potential deviations from their customary delivery schedules, a consequence of the voluminous holiday shipments. We beseech you, dear residents, to exercise utmost vigilance in ensuring the containment of your canine charges, regardless of size or breed.

Remember, even the most diminutive of dogs possess toofers capable of inflicting discomfort.

Everyone at Animal Control would like to express our deepest gratitude to the Saint Francis - MN Police Department and the Saint Francis Fire Department for their heroic efforts in rescuing Leo from a perilous situation as he was stuck in the muck and yuck of a swamp. Thanks also to the reporting party for calling him in!

Officer Amanda's quick thinking and use of a drone to locate Leo in the swamp was instrumental in the rescue. She got stuck in the mud and muck herself as she attempted to help him and she had to turn back. Her heart suck when she heard Leo howling as if pleading for her help.

The invaluable teamwork between the fire department and police department was essential in bringing Leo to safety. Their combined efforts and dedication to the cause are truly commendable.

We are incredibly grateful for the selfless actions of everyone involved in this rescue. ❤️❤️Your hard work and commitment to the community of Saint Francis make a significant difference!! Thank you for all that you do!!

A tragedy can happen in an instant. 💔💔💔 Don't let your pet's future be uncertain. Plan ahead and ensure they have a safe, loving home to go to. Consider a pet trust or designating a trusted friend or family member as their guardian.

Trick-or-Treat Safety:

Keep Them Indoors: The best way to protect your pets from harm is to keep them indoors during trick-or-treating hours. The constant doorbell ringing, excited children, and strange costumes can be overwhelming for animals.

Create a Safe Space: Provide a quiet and comfortable space for your pets to retreat to, away from the noise and commotion. A crate or a quiet room with their favorite blanket can be a comforting refuge.

Secure Gates and Doors: Double-check all gates and doors to prevent pets from escaping when you open the door for trick-or-treaters.
