Mercer County Animal Control is a small County-run facility in Aledo, IL, dedicated to enforcing the Illinois Department of Agriculture State Statutes and County Animal Control Ordinances. They work closely with no-kill shelters and animal rescues to find forever homes for adoptable animals and reduce the euthanasia rate. Their services include handling domestic complaints of animals running at large, conducting humane investigations, and ensuring public safety and compliance with county ordinances.
Mercer County Animal Control also provides registration and vaccination services for dogs and cats, in accordance with the Illinois Animal Control Act. They issue serially numbered rabies vaccination tags and require annual registration to be done within 21 days of vaccination. The facility operates under budgetary constraints imposed by the Mercer County Board and strives to reduce costs while increasing the quality of care provided to animals in their custody.
