Animal Control
Animal Control in Chaska falls within the responsibilities of the police department. Common animal problems include barking dogs and dogs soiling neighboring property. Before phoning the police, try to resolve the problem by talking (after taking ten deep breaths) with the offending dog owner. This usually works, but if it doesn’t, you can call the police. A community service officer will visit with the offending dog owner. The action taken will depend on the owner’s response and if there has been a previous warning.
Keeping a dog in town carries a lot of responsibilities. Briefly, you must:
get a license for a dog over 6 months.
keep the dog on a leash when off your property.
pick up deposits left by your dog.
keep your dog from barking.
A more thorough description is outlined in the City Animal Ordinance.
For animal problems other than dogs, the deparment will try to assist, but may refer you to a professional exterminator or other service.
