Pelham Police Animal Control

☀️ HOT WEATHER WARNING ☀️

As temperatures rise, the inside of a vehicle can become deadly for pets in just minutes — even with the windows cracked. Dogs and other animals cannot cool themselves the way humans can, making them extremely vulnerable to heatstroke, brain damage, and death.

On a 70° day, the temperature inside a car can climb above 100° in less than 30 minutes. Every summer, animals suffer tragic and preventable deaths because they were left behind “just for a minute.”

Please remember:
🐾 Never leave pets unattended in a vehicle
🐾 If you can’t bring them inside, leave them safely at home
🐾 Make sure pets always have access to fresh water and shade
🐾 If you see an animal in distress inside a hot car, call 911 immediately

Be their voice when they cannot speak for themselves. A few moments of awareness can save a life. ❤️🐶🐱

Reunited with owner!

Update : This dog was found safe.

Urgent 8 Months old male mastiff mix still missing from Hudson NH and was last seen in Pelham NH. This poor guy will bolt if approached- he is scared & has already swam across a pond trying to get away from well meaning people that were trying to help him. If you see him you are asked to please call us 1-855-639-5678. We need him to stay safe so we can trap him. Please check to see if you have him on your home security cameras. Thank you - do not post your sightings on social media.

Bruce (formerly named Cratos-will respond to that name better probably) was seen on Bush Hill Road today the 17th. Please report any sightings.

Update : This dog was found safe.

This week we recognize National Animal Control Officer Appreciation Week, and we want to extend a special thank you to Officer Allison Caprigno for her dedication, compassion, and service to our community and its animals.

She is also a certified dispatcher—making her contributions even more impactful since it’s also National Telecommunicators Appreciation Week.

Thank you, Officer Caprigno, for everything you do!
