We work with a lot of great folks at animal shelters across DFW. We see firsthand how your local shelter works to make your community better each day. Animal shelters are commonly seen as the last line of defense against animal overpopulation, but often they offer so much more than that.
Shelters often collect knowledge or have firsthand knowledge of great resources for how to take care of your pet once you get them home and what pet-related activities are happening in your community. They also offer great volunteer opportunities for animal lovers!
In an effort to improve community involvement with the many great animal shelters in North Texas, we have compiled a list of all animal shelters in this region. Try dropping by your shelter to see what’s new with animals in your community or see how you can help local animals in need.
