This week, we recognize National Animal Control Officer Appreciation Week and celebrate our two dedicated Animal Control Officers, Officer Mahoney and Officer Yost.
Animal-related calls make up a significant portion of our calls for service. These officers play a critical role in keeping our community safe. From reuniting lost pets with their families to investigating complex cases of animal abuse and neglect, their work is both demanding and essential.
Their professionalism, compassion and commitment often happen behind the scenes, but their impact is felt across our community every day.
We appreciate your service and dedication to the City of Wentzville.
