🇺🇸 Happy Fourth of July, Everyone!
🫂 Welcome to Hell Week to all Animal Control and Sheltering professionals and volunteers!
🎉 Humans: Have fun celebrating Freedom! Independence! Liberty!
🏡 Dogs: Stay inside, on a tether outside, and have potty walks on leashes after dark
🍔🌭🌮 Humans: EAT ALL THE AMERICAN FOODS!
🚫🌽🏥 Dogs: Don’t even think about eating that corn cob. Tell your people whole hot dogs and human snacks (or any alcohol!) are a sure-fire way to end up with tummy troubles or pancreatitis and in the expensive ER over the weekend
📱🤳Humans: Check our FB page regularly to see if you recognize any of the 9+ strays that have already come in the last 24 hours.
🛋️ Dogs: Stay off social media by staying home and tell your people to really think about your comfort and safety before bringing you to a party/BBQ/Fireworks display.
‼️Humans and Dogs‼️
‼️NO RUNNING AROUND NAKIES‼️
— Humans Dress Code: At least wear pants and something resembling a shirt. I mean, a bathing suit is the absolute minimum here.
— Dog Dress Code: Collar and ID tag, Collar and license, Collar with human’s phone number in Sharpie, or Collar and Microchip
☎️ 📧 Humans: Email animalcontrol@stclaircounty or call non-emergency Dispatch at 810-985-8115 if you find a pooch on its own.
📺🎹💊 Dogs: Just stay inside after 7pm. Watch a movie, run a fan, listen to classical music, take your Big Boom Scary Time meds.
