Public Service Messages

• Crime Prevention
  

  1. Please Take Responsibility for Your Dogs
  
  Every year we receive a number of complaints regarding neighbor's dogs. The two most common complaints involve barking dogs and dogs running at large. Frankly, these two types of complaints have a great deal to do with common courtesy and regard for your neighbor. In Dunbarton, we follow the RSA 466:31, which is the Animal section of the State statutes. This section states:
  
  466:31, Section II.
  
  (a) If a dog is "at large," which means it is off the premises of the owner or keeper and not under the control of any person by means of personal presence and attention as will reasonably control the conduct of such dog, unless accompanied by the owner or custodian. This subparagraph shall not include a dog which is being used for hunting, herding, supervised competition, or exhibition or training for such activities if accompanied by the owner or custodian, meaning that the owner or custodian must be able to see or hear the dog, or have reasonable knowledge of where the dog is hunting or herding, or where training is being conducted or where trials are being held, provided that such dog does not have to be within sight at all time;
  
  (b) If it barks for sustained periods of more than 1/2 hour, or during the night hours so as to disturb the peace and quiet of a neighborhood or area;
  
  Our procedure is to try to talk with dog owners to impress upon them their responsibility to be good neighbors. If the problem continues then we will start the formal enforcement process with an Abatement. Anytime we issue an Abatement or Violation we require a written statement from the complainant to comply with the statute. We always prefer to work with people to help resolve problems, however, people need to understand their responsibilities to control their dogs.
  
  2 . Vacant Property Surveillance
  
  Those who will be taking a vacation please let us know so that we can add your home to our Vacant Property list and check it periodically while you are away. Please call to give us the pertinent information.

Child Car Seat Safety Checks

The Dunbarton Police Department is pleased to offer child car seat inspections. Master Patrol Officer Jacqueline Pelletier is a Certified National Standardized Child Passenger Safety Inspector. She completed the forty-eight hour certification program in 2006. The program was developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Child safety seat inspections are done by appointment only. Those wishing to schedule an appointment should contact Officer Pelletier at the Dunbarton Police 603-774-5500. Those scheduling appointments should plan on the inspection taking approximately 45 minutes. The following information and or requirements are neccesary for a proper inspection of the child safety seat. Please have this information available for Officer Pelletier at the time that you schedule your appointment. This will allow for some of the administrative tasks to be completed prior to your arrival. Providing all of the information will also allow Officer Pelletier to check the child car safety seat recall list prior to your arrival for the inspection.

• Bring the vehicle that you intend to install the child safety car seat in.
  
• Bring the child safety car seat that you intend to install in the vehicle.
  
• Bring the child that will be utilizing the child safety car seat. If the parents are expecting a child an appropriate installation and inspection can still be completed prior to the birth of the child.

The following additional information is also required:

• Name, Address and Telephone Number
  
• Child Safety Restraint Name (located on the child seat and packaging)
  
• Child Safety Restraint Model Number (located on the child seat)
  
• Child Safety Restraint Date of Manufacture (located on the child seat)

Improper installation of Child Safety Restraints is an extremely common problem. We hope that you will take advantage of this service to help insure that your children are riding safely and with the utmost protection available to them.
