Clear.

This batch 11.

00:43

You put me on the animal call instead of the death call.

00:49

Clear.

00:58

This match 11.

01:03

Go ahead.

01:06

If you would, just go ahead and notify animal services and see if they're able to do anything.

01:12

I'll see if there's a tag on it for the owner, but I won't be able to take it anywhere.

01:22

Clear.

01:30

Since then 20-clear.

01:33

I'll have been clear.

01:37

This is a lot.

01:38

I got removed from the roadway.

01:40

I'm going to knock on a couple of doors here.

01:42

I'd just like to find the owner.

01:46

Okay.

01:54

And if you would, go ahead and have animal services come out here and see if it's chipped.

02:05

Yeah, my partner's on TX[2] with them now trying to get someone to respond.

02:12

Simple.

02:21

50511 dispatch.

02:23

Good. Good.

02:28

I spoke with animal services, they advise it's an after-hours call and they would not pick it up tonight, but they could pick it up in the morning.

02:39

I assume they're not able to come out and see if it has a chip so I can get an owner either.
