The Animal Services Department uses education to promote compliance with the laws of Eagle County and various towns within Eagle County, as they relate to pet animals.

The mission of the Eagle County Animal Services Department is to protect the pet animals and people of Eagle County while providing a consistently high level of customer service.  Responsibilities of Animal Services include patrolling for stray animals, handling bite investigations, investigating the welfare of animals and promoting compliance with all laws pertaining to pet animals.

Eagle County Animal Services is very excited about our new pet information “Puppet Show”! It is a lot of fun and we look forward to teaching the children of Eagle County about the Animal Shelter and how to be safe around pets and strange animals in their neighborhoods. Join Quincy on his search for his lost pet “Bernard” who is a very friendly St. Bernard. After being rescued while lost by our friendly local Animal Services Officer, Bernard encounters “Chester” a funny, loveable kitty who is waiting for a family to adopt him from the shelter. The show is very interactive and inviting to children of all ages.
