‼️ATTENTION‼️

Due to a medical emergency, we are down to one staff member at this time. Please understand that response times for calls may be longer than usual, while it is our ultimate goal to get to every call quickly, we want to ensure that the staff member responding is staying safe while doing so and that may mean taking their time to do it the right way instead of rushing through. We appreciate your patience during this time, if you already have a called placed to the office rest assured you are still on the list, but it may be a longer wait time than originally anticipated, if you have something to report, please leave a message with your name and number if you do not receive an answer so that someone can get back with you as soon as they are able to do so.

Thank you!

‼️ATTENTION‼️

We have been notified of a medium sized dog, white and brown, running at large in the area of I-20 at the 130-exit area. If you should see this dog, PLEASE DO NOT stop, do not attempt to catch the dog, feed the dog, or chase the dog. It is VERY skittish and is running away from our staff as well as deputies. I-20 is a very busy area, and we want him to remain as safe as possible. Chasing the animal or attempting to catch the animal could cause it to run into the highway and potentially get hurt or cause vehicle accidents.

If you see the animal, notate what mile marker you are near, and whether you are going east or west bound, call our office at 706-454-7039 to report the sighting. For your safety, as well as the animals, DO NOT stop. Our office is diligently working on a plan to hopefully execute a quick and safe removal.

Thank you!

‼️UPDATE‼️

All four dogs have been caught at this time and are in the shelter!

‼️ATTENTION‼️

We are aware of four dogs that have been reported at Redlands Boat Ramp. While they seem friendly, it is safer for them and our staff to use our humane traps to capture them as they are skittish. Please do NOT tamper with or move any traps, if you see a dog has gone into a trap feel free to call our office and make us aware, although we do frequent checks through the day. Please do NOT attempt to catch, coerce, or pick up these dogs. Please also refrain from feeding them, our traps will have food inside and any other food source available could hinder our process. Our office is working diligently to capture them; any unnecessary human interaction can cause our efforts of helping them to be unsuccessful.

Thank you!

‼️ATTENTION‼️

Recently we have had quite a few of our posts getting comments with complaints citizens would like to file with our office. While we do our best to keep up with social media, this is not the best place to file a formal report with our office. Comments are easily missed, especially when they are not under our direct post and under shares of it. Please call 706-454-7039 to file any formal reports/complaints that you would like our office to look into.

Thank you!

‼️ATTENTION‼️

Update: We have all four dogs caught at this time.

Update: We have three of the four caught, working on getting the last one.

We are aware of four dogs that have been reported on Forks Rd. We have one caught, and have traps set for the remaining three. Please do NOT tamper with or move any traps, if you see a dog has gone into a trap feel free to call our office and make us aware, although we do frequent checks through the day. Please do NOT attempt to catch, coerce, or pick up these dogs. Our office is working diligently to capture them in our humane traps, and any unnecessary human interaction can hinder that process greatly.

Thank you!

Buckwheat broke outta here!

After being with us for over two months, Buckwheat caught his freedom ride with Humane Society for Greater Savannah! We cannot thank them enough for making the trip up to pull him from our facility and giving him this chance. We know he is going to do great and make someone the best pet ever!

National Animal Control Officer Appreciation Week is this week, April 12-18th, and we want to highlight the ones who make it happen around our county!

For Greene County Animal Control, we would like to highlight Officer Harrison, who this year will have 24 years of service for this department, which is an amazing feat, Officer Wiggins who as of today, has been with Greene County for 7 years total, and will hit 5 years of service with GCAC later this year, as well as Kennel Tech Bentley who just surpassed her one year mark with us. Day in and day out they dedicate and sacrifice to make sure this department runs as smooth as possible, that all the animals in the county are cared for, and that citizens are being heard and educated on any issues that may arise. Without their services Greene County could not be what it is today!

We would also like to show our appreciation for our fellow ACOs around this county, Mr. Will Wright at Union Point Animal Control, as well as Nerocus Peaks with Greensboro Animal Control. These gentlemen have been a pleasure for our office to work with in any cases that may overlap jurisdictions. Keep doing great things!
