Ensuring enforcement of animal code ordinances and promoting responsible pet ownership, our Animal Control Officers (Wardens) are an essential part of the team and our service to the community.
Concerns regarding loose or stray dogs, dog bites and animal welfare concerns can be reported to the Brown County Animals Shelter.
Our Chief Dog Warden as well as our Deputy Wardens are certified Humane Agents, which allows our organization to enforce animal cruelty and neglect violations and can also conduct investigations into animal welfare concerns.
