The mission of the City of Surprise Police Department Animal Care and Control Unit is to build a positive relationship between the police department and pet owners throughout the city.

By educating our community and working in partnership, we can:

• Reduce unwanted and homeless pets by spaying and neutering
• Reduce the loose pet population
• Reduce the nuisance of animal noise to neighbors
