About This Clinic

The Jo Daviess County Animal Control Department is located in Galena, IL and investigates complaints of dogs running at large, picks up stray dogs, and handles reports of animal abuse and neglect.

Animal Control is a mandated county enforcement agency for protecting the community from rabies. We offer services related to animal licensing and investigation of animal-related concerns.

Email Animal Control staff directly with any questions or concerns regarding your pet or local animal welfare issues.

Licensing your pet is easy! You can visit us Monday through Friday 8 am to 4 pm, mail in an application, or pay online. See the License Registration form for fee details.
