Please know that Pinellas County Animal Services only handles issues related to dogs and cats. Nuisance wildlife would need to be addressed by privately licensed handlers, trappers, or transporters. More information may be found on this page of the Animal Services website:

Thank you, Mayor's Action Center

Our neighbor contacted the police department and was transferred to Animal Services where he was told there would be a five minute wait to speak to someone. Phone batteries would go dead and would cost money to wait all that time. A farce!

I suppose the police would get involved if there was harm done to the dog or owners.

@ BJ Mitchell sounds like a bodily threat you're publicly displaying. Lets hope no harm is done to either all fingers point to you.

City Ordinances prohibit a dog from barking more than 10 minutes, so why doesn't a dog howling fall under this same ordinance?

Sec. 4-57 (1) "frequent barking for continuous periods of ten minutes or more at any time". Therefore, a crying/howling dog should be included.

In addition, Sec 4-5 (1) addresses CATS "the frequent raising of any disturbance at late or early hours or at long intervals or both"

In other words - City Ordinances prohibit cats and dogs from causing continuous noise so therefore, the City should handle this matter.
