Danbury Animal Control
The Animal Control Division is an arm of Police Operations tasked with enforcing state and local ordinances regarding domestic animals. Animal Control Officers investigate reports of animal bites, animal nuisance, roaming dogs, and other animal related complaints including animal cruelty complaints, caring for sick and injured animals, impounding lost/found domestic animals and managing the Animal Control Facility. During off-hours, Danbury Police Officers will respond to animal complaints, take pertinent information and forward the complaint information to Animal Control Officers for follow up.
The Animal Control Facility is located at 23 Plumtrees Road. This is not a 24-hour facility, our hours are Mon, Tue, Fri. 7am-7pm and Wed., Thur., Sat., Sun. 7am-6pm.
If you have an animal related complaint, please call the Animal Control Officers at (203) 748-6456. During off-hours, please call the Danbury Police Departments routine complaint line at (203) 797-4611.
While we will respond to investigate reports of sick or injured wildlife, we are statutorily forbidden from interfering with healthy nuisance wildlife. If you are experiencing wildlife caused problems and are unable or unwilling to resolve the situation yourself, you will most likely be referred to a Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator. The Dept. of Energy and Environmental Protection maintains a list of licensed NWCO’s on their website, they can also be reached anytime at (860) 424-3333.
Animal Control Officers work a varied schedule. They work both on-site at the Animal Control Facility and in the field.
