Montgomery County, TN – In an effort to better serve the citizens of Montgomery County, Animal Control and Adoption Services will be open new hours beginning January 1st, 2012. The facility will be open to the public from 10:00am to 3:00pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, 10:00am to 7:00pm on Thursdays and will be closed on Wednesdays and Sundays.
“We hope this new schedule change will allow citizens easier access to our facility and allow us to better serve our customers”, states County Mayor Carolyn Bowers.
“Mornings and late afternoons seem to be the busiest internally, as these are the times that the animals most require our attention. The new hours will allow the staff ample time to give the animals their undivided attention and get officers out on the roads quicker,” says Karen Josephson, Animal Control Director. Josephson continues, “We analyzed past call, adoption and impound logs in an effort to find a schedule that is the best fit for our community. The extended hours on Thursdays are to better serve those who can’t get away from work during the day to visit our facility.”
Animal Control and Adoption Services will begin various adoption promotions in the coming year and will continue to seek ways to better serve the citizens and animals of Montgomery County.
