The Animal Control Officer responds to citizen complaints concerning domestic animals and wildlife, picks up stray animals and investigates animal bites and animal cruelty cases, and enforces state and local Animal Control Laws.
Among those laws is keeping your dogs leashed (code 89-3) and picking up after your dog (code 89-4).
Therefore, please be mindful of this if you have a dog...
and don't forget...
WHY? You can read more on picking up after your dog HERE, AND read more about the 10 reasons to leash your dog HERE.
Residents are encouraged to reach out to the Lawrence Township Animal Control Officer, Christine Buck, at (609) 844-7092 if you have any questions, concerns, or would like to report a violation.
Below, you can access additional Animal Control communications and forms which include the full list of their ordinances, information on registering your dog or cat (a door-to-door dog and cat canvas is conducted annually by the Animal Control Officer), as well as how to deal with local wildlife - coyotes and foxes.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
