Animal Control

Animal Control's primary responsibility is the safety of all residents and animals within the Town of Seymour limits and enforcement of local and state ordinances regarding animals including:
  • acting as an interface with other agencies dealing with dogs, cats, birds, and other animals
  • working with authorities to obtain emergency veterinary assistance for injured dogs and cats
  • enforcing all Town ordinances pertaining to dogs running at large
  • patrolling problem areas in the Town
  • bite investigations
  • cruelty investigations
  • noise complaints
  • rabies control
  • wildlife problems

We now have our own Dog Kennel in the Town of Seymour on Silvermine Road, next to the Transfer Station.  Please contact the Animal Control Officer for more information.
