We are very proud to finally present to you our brand new City of Brandon Pound webpage and Facebook page dedicated to domestic animals in Brandon! You can find the Pound webpage link through our Brandon Police Service webpage, under the Animal Control tab. There you can also find more information on animal by-laws, licensing requirements, fees, and other useful pet information. As soon as an animal arrives at the pound, a photo will be taken. That photo will then be uploaded to the new Pound Webpage, and Facebook page. Descriptors of the animal, and the location it was found will be added as well. Our goal has always been to reunite pets with their owners, and to have strays adopted; having an online presence should expedite that process. We invite you to follow our pages, which can be found here: http://police.brandon.ca/pound https://facebook.com/BrandonCityPound

Late Tuesday afternoon, Brandon Fire and Emergency Services and police responded to the 000 block of 10th St for a two-vehicle crash. It appears that a dark SUV and a grey sedan collided near the entrance to a parking lot along 10th St. Although there was damage to both vehicles, thankfully nobody was injured.   Firefighter/paramedics deployed sand underneath the vehicles to help soak up leaking fluids. Accel Towing and Transport was on scene to removed the wrecked vehicles. Photos by Liam Pattison Photography.
