Machias Animal Control Officer has tips for pet owners, and some good stories, too

by Sarah Craighead Dedmon

Jessica Lewis has served as the Machias, Northfield, and UT Animal Control Officer for three years now, and that’s long enough to have collected a few good stories. For instance, there was that time she was called to check on someone who was housing two cows in a minivan.

“They had taken out the seats in the back and had hay in there,” recalls Lewis. When the cows weren’t in their minivan, they were often on neighboring lawns.

“I had at least three neighbors wrangling the cows and calling me,” said Lewis.
