В Ростерне и Дак-Лейк на следующей неделе прекратят работу службы по контролю за животными

Rosthern, Duck Lake to be without animal control for next week Those seeking help from animal control in Rosthern or Duck Lake will have to hold onto their requests for service over the next while. The Town of Rosthern announced on Tuesday that animal control will be shut down beginning Aug. 27 through Sept. 5. The reason being is a simple one, as the person who runs it is taking some time off. Despite looking after two communities, Rosthern’s Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Cortney Larsen said they only staff one person for the job as calls for service can be few and far between. “We just don’t have enough animals for that. This is a very part-time thing,” she explained, adding it’s difficult to find someone to do the job in the first place. “[The current animal control person] is an animal lover and so she’s very willing to do this position.”
