The pups are being introduced to new textures and stimulation and it's fun to see them becoming more and more active! We're only a few weeks away from bringing our Therapy K9 home. 😍 Deputy Tommy is eager to "raise the woof" as they train together.
DO YOU RECOGNIZE THEM? These two people broke into a church in Morton County and drove this vehicle (possibly a Kia Soul - no license plates). If you have any information that could be helpful, please call us at 701-667-3330 or text "NDMORTON" with your anonymous tip to 847411.

So what's the difference between Therapy Dogs, Service Dogs and Emotional Support Animals?
Therapy dogs: support and comfort
Service dog: for individual with disability
ESA: no certification needed - for mental/emotional disorders.

OUR #BIGANNOUNCEMENT IS ACTUALLY QUITE TINY: We are getting a puppy - but not just ANY puppy. We are adding a #TherapyK9 to our staff! Our new paw-fficer will be here in July, but join our "awww"s and "oh fer cute"s as we share more pics and info in the days and weeks to come!
June 1 - it's World Milk Day, National Nail Polish Day, National Pen Pal Day and National Go Barefoot Day....but most importantly, it's the day we'll share our #BigAnnouncement!
#GOODNEWS With our recent snow and rainfall, our Morton County Parks received some much needed moisture. This allows us to lift the campfire ban when the fire danger rating is in the LOW or MODERATE category. Check daily rating https://t.co/uuSjeGQ5Hn.
ROAD CLOSURES: Due to water over the roadway, 40 ½ St west of Glen Ullin between 69th Ave and County Road 139 is CLOSED until further notice. 67th St east of Flasher between Co Rd 83 and 35th Ave is also closed.
STORM 4/23 7:30pm : We've issued a NO TRAVEL ADVISORY for western Morton County (areas west of New Salem). Conditions poor. Semis in ditches. Slush turning to ice. Conditions will continue to worsen. Motorists need to SLOW DOWN if they must travel.
Clearing more snow today to widen roads beyond 1 lane. Battling mud along with snow. But we have some awesome staff from other departments helping out in the shop to clean off machinery and running out parts for quick fixes on equipment. #teamworkmakesthedreamwork
Dear Old Man Winter,
You had Oct-Mar to make your presence known. You chose to procrastinate. Now you show up? That's not ok, Old Man. I'm telling Mom.
Sincerely,
The Easter Bunny
