Is it illegal for someone to leave the scene, without reporting to a Law Enforcement Agency that they have hit a domestic dog (or cat)?
Yes, this is a misdemeanor and the person responsible could be arrested. In the Town of Salem, it is also a violation to leave the scene of a domestic cat without reporting the incident to a Law Enforcement Agency. • If I have a lost pet where do I begin? Nobody knows your pet better than you. First thing to do would begin your search with a call to the Animal Control Officer’s office for assistance, (603) 890-2390. If your pet does not return in what you feel is a reasonable amount of time, begin to make flyers with information of your pet on them. For example, your pet’s description, a photo, its gender, breed, size, distinguishing features (nicks in the ears, scars or marks), identification tags or if your pet has an implanted identification chip. With this information on paper, make copies and begin dropping them off at local vet clinics and animal shelters and /or at a few local businesses, which allow free advertising.
