So,
00:32
I think you guys got a call earlier about a great pit bull that was on the loose.
00:37
The pit bull actually stays near Johnson St.
00:40
I'm trying to make contact with somebody in the house, but the pit bull is not letting me.
00:44
Can you just make a note on that and see if we can get a hold of maybe animal control or a humane society so they can come out and make contact with these people?
00:53
Okay, hold on. So this is a 22 complaint?
01:01
I got a little bit ago about the dog running around. So I got the dog inside the house,
01:07
but he doesn't have a collar or anything, and he keeps jumping the fence.
01:11
So we just need to make contact with the property owner, the owner of the dog, so that we can try to educate them on making sure that he has a leash of property secure because he's going to bite somebody.
01:23
Okay,
01:24
and so are you wanting me to call Animal Control? Because I don't know that they'll come out if he's not loose right now.
01:30
Yeah, animal control or humane society, I'm not sure who's the one that does it, but they make contact and make sure that the owner has a license and they're pretty much doing everything they should be doing or they will find them.
01:42
I know animal control doesn't come out to get him because he's home,
01:45
but I think it's the humane society that comes out.
01:49
Okay,
01:51
yeah, I'll try to leave a message for him in a minute.
01:55
Copy, thank you. Just want to put a note on there because I'm pretty sure the dog is going to come back.
01:59
It's going to be loose again. We just wanted to have a note where the dog belongs.
