UPDATE: THE DOGS OWNER HAS BEEN LOCATED

I went on a stroll to watch the sunset last night and got lost on my way home. The nice officers picked me up, gave me dinner, and kept me warm. I am microchipped, but it is not registered to my owners. If you know my owners, please have them call the Pacific Grove Police Department at 831-648-3143.

🌺 SEPTEMBER STICKER DROP | HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH 🌺

September marks the beginning of Hispanic Heritage Month, celebrated each year from September 15 through October 15.

This month long celebration recognizes the history, culture, traditions, and contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities in the United States and around the world. 🌎

September 15 is significant because it marks the independence anniversaries of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua, with Mexico celebrating its independence on September 16 and Chile on September 18.

Our September limited edition sticker was inspired by the vibrant artistry of papel picado, colorful, intricately cut paper traditionally used to decorate celebrations and special occasions throughout Mexico and other parts of Latin America. 🌺

By incorporating this traditional artwork into the Pacific Grove Police badge, we celebrate culture, community, heritage, and the diversity that makes our community so special. ⭐️

⭐️ Want one?
Our September stickers are available at the Pacific Grove Police Department while supplies last!

🌺 ¡Feliz Mes de la Herencia Hispana! 🌺
🌺 Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! 🌺

🐿️ PLEASE DON’T FEED THE WILDLIFE. 🐿️

That squirrel may look cute when it comes running toward you for food—but feeding wildlife can have serious consequences.

When wild animals become accustomed to being fed by people, they can become dependent on human food, lose their natural foraging behaviors, and experience changes to their health and behavior.

🌿 Wildlife is healthiest when it stays wild.

Feeding or offering food to wildlife in prohibited areas is a violation of Pacific Grove Municipal Code 10.10.010, and a citation may be issued for violations.

Please enjoy Pacific Grove’s wildlife from a distance and allow our squirrels and other animals to find their natural food sources.

💙 Don’t feed. Don’t approach. Let wildlife stay wild.

Help us protect the wildlife that makes Pacific Grove so special.
