This book is the first of its kind to discuss in detail the actual
management of local animal control programs as opposed to the care
of the animals. The book covers those financial, personnel, legal
and health and safety issues that animal control directors and
management staff need to know in providing direction and oversight
of animal control programs. Chapters examine selected topics in
which the author assesses the strengths and weaknesses, offers new
insights and strategies for managing more effectively. For example,
the two chapters on contracting, discuss the steps in the process,
strategies, and suggested provisions in the written agreement to
make the program more effective. The animal law chapters explain
the basis for the laws, but also highlight those provisions that if
enacted into law, can strengthen enforcement options. The chapter
on budget and revenues explains funding variations among programs
and how local officials have been creative in financing these
programs. Subjects addressed in this book include many recently
recognized as vital to the management of animal control programs.
They include: need for websites, use of program evaluations, and
the value of forms, records and reports. In addition, the author
discusses and assesses from a new perspective: interacting with the
public and the media, liability issues, wildlife problems, and the
politics of animal control.
