Madison Heights Animal Control

🌩️ POST-STORM PET SAFETY REMINDER 🐾🌩️

With severe weather moving through our area, Madison Heights Animal Control would like to remind residents to take a few moments to inspect their property before letting pets outside.

✔️ Check fencing, gates, tie-outs, and other containment areas for storm damage, loose boards, fallen branches, or other hazards that could allow pets to escape.

✔️ Walk your yard and inspect for debris, standing water, and displaced wildlife. High winds, heavy rain, and fallen trees can injure or displace wild animals, causing them to seek shelter in yards, under decks, near structures, or within tall grass and brush.

✔️ Pay attention if your dog suddenly becomes fixated on a particular area of the yard. Injured wildlife may be hidden from view and can bite or scratch if approached. Deceased wildlife can also pose health and safety risks to pets.

If you find injured, displaced, or deceased wildlife, please contact:

📞 Madison Heights Animal Control: (248) 890-3269

📞 Madison Heights Police Department (Non-Emergency): (248) 585-2100

A few minutes spent inspecting your property after a storm can help prevent pet escapes and ensure injured wildlife receives the assistance it needs.

Thank you for helping keep Madison Heights’ pets, residents, and wildlife safe. ❤️🐕🦝🦉
