Child Abuse
Each case is different. The child may not have to testify, but must be willing, if necessary.
You should immediately contact your local police department, sheriff's office, or the Division of Child and Family Services. In Weber County, call (801)629-5800 or CPS Intake at (801)395-5911.
Internet Crimes
Educate your child about the dangers online. Follow up on what your child is doing on the internet. Never assume that someone your child has met online is who he or she claims to be.
Never post pictures of yourself on the internet or e-mail them to people you don't personally know.
Do not attempt to copy or forward any of the images or messages on your computer. Turn the computer off immediately to preserve the evidence and call the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force at (801) 596-0907 or (800) 932-0190.
Animal Control
No. We try hard to find animals homes, but there are no guarantees. We will not place a dog that has bitten, is extremely sick, or has shown any aggressive tendencies at all. We also have a hard time placing anything over five years old, but we do try.
Yes. We've shipped dogs to New York, Colorado, and Illinois. We've also had people drive to here from all over to adopt animals.

No. We have adopted out Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, and other breeds with bad reputations. We do screen very closely, and base whether the animal is put up for adoption on their personalities, not on their breed.
