Barking Dogs

When a neighbor’s dog won’t stop barking, please call Johnson County Dispatch non-emergency number at 913.782.0720 and be prepared to provide the address where the dog is located. The call needs to be made while the barking is occuring, so sending an email notice is not effective. A Community Service Officer or Police Officer will respond to the call.
