Congratulations to our newest Animal Services Officer McCoy for graduating from the Basic Animal Control Academy. Welcome to the team! 🎉

Today two of our officers got to go out to Hope’s Legacy Equine Rescue Farm to learn more about our equestrian friends. It was great learning about all of the animals and meeting up with other jurisdictions. Thank you Hope’s Legacy for hosting this event! #horserescue #yeehaw

☀️ Warm weather is upon us! Please keep your pets at home. Remember, in just 10 minutes, the temperature inside your car can rise 20 degrees! ‼️ Call (804) 748-1251 immediately if you see a dog that appears to be in distress due to rising temperatures inside a vehicle.

🧡If you see something, say something. One of the top priorities for @CCPDVa is to protect the vulnerable. As members of this department, this priority is something that we focus on each and every day. If you suspect animal abuse, cruelty, or neglect, please call 804-748-1251.🧡

‼️PSA‼️ On 3/31/22 a sick fox was found in the Brandermill area. It was sent for testing & came back positive for rabies. 4 pets were possibly exposed. Please call 804-748-1251 for sick wildlife. Also, make sure your pets are up to date on vaccinations.
