🐾Animal Control Officer Ivanna Garza speaking about the Importance of Microchipping your Pets 🐾 Did you know that around 10 million pets go missing every year in the U.S. alone? 😔 While losing a pet is heartbreaking, there's a simple way to increase the chances of getting your furry friend back – microchipping! Microchipping is a safe, quick, and permanent way to ensure that if your pet ever gets lost, they can be reunited with you. 📍 Microchips are about the size of a grain of rice and are inserted just under the skin. They contain your contact information, and shelters or vets can scan them to track you down. 🔑 Here are some key stats: 1 in 3 pets will get lost at some point in their lives. Only 22% of lost cats and 52% of lost dogs that are not microchipped are returned to their owners. Pets with microchips are 2.5 times more likely to be reunited with their families than those without. Don't wait for the unexpected to happen—take action today to keep your pets safe! 🐶🐱 Microchipping can be a lifesaver. It’s a small step with a big impact. 🐾 #MicrochipYourPet #PetSafety #LostAndFound #ProtectYourPets #PetLove #BARCC #EveryPetDeservesAHome

The Amazing Hercules

🐾Hercules: A Fighter’s Journey🐾 🐶When Hercules arrived at our shelter in early February, he was weak, frail, and suffering from a severe case of puppy pyoderma. His skin was raw, his eyes full of fear, and he seemed to have given up on hope. But we didn’t give up on him.💔 💉With medical care, love, and patience, Hercules began to heal. His skin improved, his fur slowly regrew, and with each passing day, his confidence grew. The timid, scared pup we first met started to trust again, wagging his tail and seeking affection from those who cared for him.🥰 💪Hercules has transformed from a broken little dog into a brave, resilient fighter. Now, he’s ready for a family that will give him the love and security he deserves. This little warrior has proven that he deserves a second chance at happiness.💕

Animal Control Officer Juan Arias is sharing valuable information with us as pet owners, we want the best for our furry friends – and that includes ensuring they are safe and secure within our homes and yards. Keeping your dog inside the boundaries of your property isn't just about convenience, it's about safety, health, and responsibility. Here’s why it’s so crucial: Preventing Accidents 🚗: Dogs that roam freely are at risk of getting hit by cars, injured in fights with other animals, or encountering dangerous situations. Keeping them on your property reduces these risks. Keeping Them Healthy 🐕: Outside your property, there are dangers like toxic plants, pesticides, or diseases from other animals. Staying within your yard or home ensures they are safe from these harmful exposures. Avoiding Legal Issues ⚖️: In many areas, letting your dog roam freely can result in fines or legal action. Leash laws and pet ordinances are in place to protect not only your dog but the community. Preventing Loss or Theft 🕵️‍♂️: A dog wandering outside may become lost, stolen, or end up in a shelter. By keeping them within your property, you're protecting them from these heart-wrenching situations. Respecting Others 🙏: Not everyone is comfortable around dogs, and some may have allergies or phobias. Keeping your dog on your property ensures a peaceful environment for neighbors. Remember, a happy dog is a safe dog! Whether it's a secure fence, a leash, or simply watching them closely when outside, taking extra care will keep your pet safe, healthy, and loved. Let’s all do our part to ensure our dogs enjoy their outdoor time safely! 🐾❤️ #DogSafety #ResponsiblePetOwnership #ProtectYourPet #BTXBARCC #EveryPetDeservesAHome
