“We’re excited to host our very first Animal Services Summer Social. This event is a great family-friendly opportunity to have fun and learn more about the roles and responsibilities of Animal Services. It’s also an opportunity for the community to learn more about the ways they can make a difference in the community – including by getting pets microchipped, licensing dogs, and learning more about wildlife-proofing their property.”
