We Have Moved
The Animal Control is now solely located at the dog pound and has no office space in Town Hall. Please see the map for location and directions. Please note: dog licences need to be obtained by mail through Town Clerk's Office. We do not renew or issue new dog licences at Animal Control. Click here for dog licensing information.

General Information
The Southbury Animal Control Department enforces all State laws and Town ordinances relating to animals. The department handles calls
regarding roaming dog(s), nuisance barking, animal bites/attacks, unreasonable tethering or confining of a dog, validation of current rabies
vaccination, licensing laws, leash law ordinance compliance, and conducts routine patrols. Dogs found roaming or lost are brought to the Southbury
Pound located in the rear of the Firehouse parking lot.
Verbal warnings, written warnings or infractions may be issued pursuant to Chapter 435 of the Connecticut General Statutes.
Southbury Animal Control also handles emergency calls such as reports of animal cruelty, injured dog or cat, and situations involving
possible rabid animal exposure to humans or domestic animals. After 4:30 p.m. an animal bite/attack is also considered an emergency.
Adoption hours are available Monday through Sunday from 9:00 am to 3:30 pm by appointment only.
