National Animal Control Officer Appreciation Week is this week, April 12-18th, and we want to highlight the ones who make it happen around our county!
For Greene County Animal Control, we would like to highlight Officer Harrison, who this year will have 24 years of service for this department, which is an amazing feat, Officer Wiggins who as of today, has been with Greene County for 7 years total, and will hit 5 years of service with GCAC later this year, as well as Kennel Tech Bentley who just surpassed her one year mark with us. Day in and day out they dedicate and sacrifice to make sure this department runs as smooth as possible, that all the animals in the county are cared for, and that citizens are being heard and educated on any issues that may arise. Without their services Greene County could not be what it is today!
We would also like to show our appreciation for our fellow ACOs around this county, Mr. Will Wright at Union Point Animal Control, as well as Nerocus Peaks with Greensboro Animal Control. These gentlemen have been a pleasure for our office to work with in any cases that may overlap jurisdictions. Keep doing great things!
