COMMENTS:

Eugene Glembocki (Dennis) – I believe in leash laws, but feel at home dogs should have a secure yard to run in.
For many of us, animals are our friends and in some cases companions. People who harm or injure animals are capable of the same to other human beings.

Burgess Hamer (Middle) – Thank you for thinking of me.

Dan Lockwood (Middle) – I like simple solutions. For instance, our community could really use sidewalks. That would make it better for our seniors and easier to walk dogs.

Kristine Gabor (Upper) – We have just updated our animal control service in Upper Township and will be opening our new dog park this month. Thank you.

Steven Nickelsberg (Upper) – None

Richard Palumbo (Upper) – We have worked hard to partner with Beacon Animal Rescue to allow animals a second chance with another family. We believe in spay and neuter programs and we offer free rabies clinics with a local veterinarian. We also just contracted with Dr. Holland to perform our animal control needs.

Louis Murray (Woodbine) – We would like for our animal to have the best care than can have. We have people in Woodbine who take good care of their animals.
