• 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
