We have assisted in two animals that have been hit by traffic in the last week. We hate it and so do the families.

By keeping your animals properly leashed, you are protecting them and also protecting drivers, walkers, bikers, and other animals.

We don't want to keep responding to these calls and trust us, you won't like it either.

Please leash your pets.
