Animal Control

The Health Department shares animal control duties with the Animal Control Officer, who can be reached at (978) 897-5596, based in Hudson Police Department. We are the regulatory authority for making sure animals are kept under sanitary conditions. If you wish to keep animals other than typical household pets (cats, dogs, caged birds, & fish) in Hudson, you are required to follow our regulation: "The Control of Keeping of Animals in the Town of Hudson — Regulations". Hudson prohibits the keeping of rooster in residential neighborhoods.
