The Pinehurst Police Department would like to encourage owners to microchip their animal(s).

Many times animals that have been located in the Village do not have microchips.  This makes it difficult to reunite them with their families. The Police Department can trace owners through Village pet registration records and through microchips via a scanner that reads the information contained on the chips.

Pet identification enables us to locate the owner quickly, thus alleviating the stress pets and their owners incur at being away from their loved ones. Below you will find links to the Moore County Animal Operations contact information as well as the Moore County Animal Operations Ordinances.
