Officer Reber has been an Animal Control Officer for the Town of Kill Devil Hills N.C. since December of 1989.Officer Reber feels that being a responsible pet owner is very important for both pet owners and non pet owners. A responsible pet owner should provide proper care for their pet by providing food, water, and proper shelter for the time of year, veterinary care, love and affection.
Responsible pet owners make good neighbors and so do their pets. Animal problems affect everyone.
The animals of irresponsible pet owners cost taxpayer’s xxxx amount dollars for Animal Control services each year. Exercise your pet daily it will keep him or her happy, healthy and trim.
Please don't let your pet run free that's being irresponsible. Pets thrive on attention from their owners and you will enjoy their companionship too. Keep pets restrain. Free roaming pets face many dangers (cars, other animals, disease, etc). Provide your animal with a good collar and proper tags.Check with your county /town shelters for information about registering your pet (county/city dog license).
Spaying (female) or Neutering (male) your pet is good.
With millions of unwanted animals born each year spaying or neutering is a effective birth control for your pet and there are other benefits too. Spaying and neutering helps protect animals from many common health problems. Both male and female pets face a less risk of developing certain cancers. A spayed or neutered animal feels less of an urge to roam and are less likely to be in an accident or get into a fight and so on. You do not have to let your pet breed before spaying or neutering for your to have a good disposition .If your pet gains weight after being spaying or neutering it’s because of lack of exercise and an improper diet.
If you ever have to find a home for your pet because you are no longer able to keep same try your best to find a good, loving home and if all else fails call your local shelter. Never wait until the last minute and never abandon the animal.
If your eyes could only see what my eyes see, PLEASE SPAY OR NEUTER YOUR PET, THINK AHEAD BEFORE ADOPTING OR BUYING A PET, and SEEK ADVICE FROM PET EXPERTS WHENEVER YOU HAVE QUESTION. AND THEN YOU WILL DISCOVER THE REWARDS OF BEING A RESPONSIBLE PET OWNER.
