The Greene County Sheriffβs Office offers these tips for motorists to help make holiday travel safer for all:
β’ If you plan to drink, have a designated driver.
β’ Put the phone down! Itβs unlawful in Virginia to hold a communication device while driving.
β’ Donβt drive distracted, and speak up if someone else is doing so.
β’ Buckle up, and ensure children and car seats are secured.
β’ Maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you.
β’ Use your signals for lane changes and turns.
β’ Donβt leave children, elderly people or pets in parked cars for any amount of time; cars can heat dangerously fast on hot days.
There will be additional deputies out in Greene County this Labor Day weekend to insure our highways are safe. On behalf of Sheriff Steve Smith and his staff, have a safe holiday weekend, buckle up, and arrive alive.

Any information on the whereabouts of this dog please contact Deputy Breeden at 434-760-0454

So sad i hope he's returned to the rightful owner Ihad a Yorkie taken from me years ago and that Was an hopeless feeling
How low down an you get. Prayers for a safe return home. Please keep us updated.
That is crazy and so sad
why would someone leave a young pup outside by itself on ford avenue…. i hope he gets found! We gotta keep an eye out for our fur babies
Poor Doggie. Any description of the vehicle?
What a shame when a pup is taken hope he is home soon
Hope they find him and whoever took him needs to be drug into a dark room and the stuffing beat out of them...

Wondering if this is true. No vehicle description???
This is at least grand larceny. More if the dog was from a reputable breeder who's done health checks on the sire and dam. The American Bully is not an inexpensive dog. Ppl who took him probably just thought it was a pit bull unless they knew the owner. I had mine microchipped as a puppy and it was never left unsupervised. Shared to my page also.

Today's Hero...at least he tried π
Officer McKee went down the water drain in the Food Lion parking lot trying to save a kitten.
I had already left work & been home, but had to take a key back to my coworker, when a customer came up to my car to saying there were kittens in the drain hole.
I pull over there & could hear the meowing, but it was only one meow.
Another customer come over & took the cover off the manhole, but we could not see the kitten. There were three tunnels leading to this hole, so we didn't know which one it was in.
I called the sheriff's office for animal control, but they weren't on duty, but they would have an officer call me, but it may be a while because they were out on a call.
So, I started calling my friends trying to find some way to get this kitten out.
After talking to three friends, Office McKee pulls in the parking lot.
He shines his light down the hole, but again we could hear the kitten & not see it. Then, the officer says he's going down for a look. He takes off all his gear & makes his way down the hole. He was able to see the kitten & said it was tiny. Then he starts to craw in the pipe towards the baby. After 15 minutes or so, the officer come back to the opening saying, the further he crawled the more the kitten would move away from him.
We decided to try food, so I went in Food Lion for cat food & treats. The officer went back into the hole with the goodies, but same thing happened. He couldn't get close enough. So as he was crawling back out, he made a trail of treats for the kitten to make its way to the open can of food.
By this time another officer came & a few more bystanders. Someone said tuna fish & went in the store for a can. He used his knife to open it.
The officer climbed back in the hole for the third time & I handed the tuna fish down to him. When he came back up, he called Animal Control himself. They said they would come out in the morning & set a trap.
Y'all Say A Prayer for the Little Fella
Thank you Office McKee. I'm proud of our Officers and Animal Control. I pray the kitten is okay.
Officer McKee you are best of the best. We appreciate all that you do!β€οΈ
Real heroπ₯°thank you officer McKee for doing all you could to try and help the kitten
Please keep us updated on how this turns out. Thank you for trying to help the kitty and for being our hero’s and protectors of our amazing county.
Keep us at Roto-Rooter up to date! We are happy to lend a hand!
Hope the kitten is all right.
Awesome job!!
Any word on the Kitten?
Prayers
And hope it doesn’t rain. Poor fella.

Glad a trap was set today, and hope this baby is caught safely. ππ
I have actually saved 7 in the past years in the ones by our house.
Your a hero officer McKee I was there he did his best to get the kitty
Kitten is still down there somewhere and crying. We're in for some weather soon, and I am worried. π₯Ί
