Complaint Review: Linda Gentile owner Shore Animal Control

Linda Gentile, owner of Shore Animal Control located at 96 Dennisville-Petersburg Road, Woodbine NJ 08270 or P.O. Box 597 Tuckahoe NJ 08250 ( linda@shoreanimalcontrol.com or info@shoreanimalcontrol.com  1800 351 1822 has conspired with a lady from Buena Vista to legally adopt and keep my pet that was stolen from my property.  Linda Gentile is angry that she and the lady from Buena Vista did not get away with my pet that they stole and tried to legally adopt by using facebook.

Linda Gentile and Shore Animal Control must be reported for conspiring to steal a pet and refusing to return the pet and helping or supporting another person to adopt my pet, even with the knowledge that I claimed my pet, but was refused the return until other people got involved (State Police in Upper Township and Northfield Police in Atlantic County NJ).

Also, Linda Gentile of Shore Animal Control has recruited several police officers in Mays Landing, Hamilton Township to support her in harassment, intimidation, telephone threats several times a week to remove my pets, and bias treatment of me and my family  to find any reason to take our pets. Linda and Sarah from Shore Animal Control misinformed me of the where about of my pet Gar Gar the border collier several times and refused to give me an appointment or time to pick up my pet.

Sarah told me by phone on Sunday, February 17, 2019 that my pet was transferred to Atlantic County Animal Shelter on Saturday, February 16, 2019. Joe assistant manager at Atlantic County Animal Shelter informed me that my pet was never transferred to Atlantic County Animal Shelter as of Monday, February 18, 2019. When Linda Gentile was asked about why Sarah would tell me my pet was transferred, she stated Sarah mis-spoke on Monday, February 18, 2019. According to Joe, assistant manager at Atlantic County Animal Shelter, he called Linda at Shore Animal Control on Saturday, February 16, 2019 regarding a description of the missing border collier.  

When I spoke with Linda on Saturday, February 16, 2019, Linda said the border collier is here with me and had walked all the way to Seaville NJ, starving. I asked Linda where could I pick up my pet and when. Linda stated she would call me back after she gets the information for the officer I should speak with about my pet. Linda did not call me back and the next day, Sunday, February 17, 2019, I looked up Shore Animal Control on Facebook, that is when I saw a photo of my pet, with lots of post speaking about the lost border collier. and people who may be willing to adopt the lost pet.

I posted on Facebook, that is my pet Gar Gar, and how do I get her home. I contacted Shore Animal Control again, and again, asking for my pet, I was told incorrect information, ignored, and not given the pet. I called the Northfield police, the State Police Upper Township near Woodbine, and posted more information on Shore Animal Control's Facebook page.  Shore Animal Control pulled down the photo of Gar Gar and all post related to Gar Gar.

The State Police Sargent Sinnil went to visit Shore Animal Control about my pet, he called me back and said Shore will set up a meeting in Hamilton Township at the Mays Landing Police department to return the dog at 7pm on Monday, February 18, 2019. I called Linda, left a voicemail, that my family and I would meet her at Northfield police station at 7pm to receive my pet Gar Gar. We arrived at Northfield police after 4pm, the officer on duty (?), told us that Linda from Shore Animal Control has called him and said we were to meet her in Hamilton Township to pick up my pet at 7pm.

I told the Northfield police I refused to go to Mays Landing and meet, the police are not friendly and cause trouble. While I was writing the theft report at Northfield, my phone rang and it was Mays Landing Hamilton Township police, badge #116 Thunorn(sp?). He informed me that he was inspecting my property where I have 4 dogs, they look fine, but temp may go down tonight and someone had better be there to take the dogs into the house or he would write me a ticket.  He did not know any thing about the dog that Shore Animal Control was holding and would not get into that conversation.

Badge #116 told Northfield police he would not be in any conversation in helping me to get my pet back from Shore Animal Control or the lady in Buena Vista. Northfield police set up the exchange for them to meet in Northfield at 7pm. Officer D'merco waiting with us, and at 9:25pm the lady arrived with my pet. She gave me the pet, I said thank you to the Northfield police, and exited. Now, Wednesday, February 20, 2019 I have received several phone calls from Mays Landing Hamilton Township police about my pets in Mizpah, NJ, Officer Givoni said he has received a third party call to investigate the well being of the pets and they are fine, but he would continue to check on them.
