Dangerous dogs can remain with their owners if they meet certain criteria, as such as retaining insurance coverage and submitting to annual inspections to make sure the dogs are properly confined. ACS, which operates a 14-acre campus on the city’s West Side, is considered the largest municipal shelter in South Texas.
“Finding placement for pets that arrive on the ACS campus has been one of the greatest challenges that we’re currently facing,” Sims said.as a no-kill shelter because the percentage of animals it releases through adoption or to other animal welfare organizations — known as the live release rate — fell below 90%. This year the city’s live release rate sunk to 81%, which is higher than other major Texas cities, but “not something we’re happy about,” Sims said.
It also proposes funding an additional animal trainer to provide behavioral assessments, as well as additional staff to work with partnering agencies on adoptions. “We believe that our stray and roaming dog numbers have increased over the last three years at a much higher rate,” Sims said.
