San Angelo Animal Services operated under “Capture and Kill” policies for decades, which were ineffective and resulted in over 9,000 euthanasias annually. These policies failed to address the root causes of the issues. Please inform your councilperson that you do not support these practices, especially when alternative solutions are available.

City shelter outcomes since 10:00 AM on February 26, 2025, until today at 3:45 PM:
• 20 dogs euthanized in anticipation of the need for space due to the intake policy change (only 2 dogs and 1 cat were euthanized for legitimate medical reasons, and 1 dog from bite quarantine for head testing).
• 32 dogs have been transferred to PAWS
If we can get more foster volunteers we will pull more!
• 9 dogs transferred to area rescue organization
(Thank you Hearts And Paws Rescue Inc)
This totals 61 animals leaving the facility.

Intake since 10:00 AM on February 26, 2025:
• 23 stray animals.
• 5 owner-surrendered pets.
This creates a total of 28 animals needing space.

THE IMMEDIATE EUTHANASIA FOR SPACE was not necessary for space as kennels now sit empty. It is crucial that city leadership is informed that this situation is unacceptable.

Let your city leaders hear your voice!!!

SAD, SAD DAY!!!! SAN ANGELO ANIMAL SERVICES REVERTS BACK TO CAPTURE & KILL POLICIES: San Angelo Animal Shelter will increase euthanasia due to new policies implemented by City Manager Daniel Valenzuela. The shelter will no longer provide public euthanasia lists when nearing capacity and may euthanize without notice. Stray dogs without collars or microchips can be euthanized after 72 hours, and owner-surrendered pets may be euthanized upon arrival.

This policy reverts San Angelo to practices from 1960-2016 that resulted in over 9,000 animal deaths annually, making it one of Texas' highest kill municipal shelters at the time. Capture and kill policies were ineffective then and remain so now. Without accountability for irresponsible pet ownership and breeding, these issues will persist, impacting the animals and those who care for them.

It's time for animal lovers to unite and demand better for San Angelo’s pets. Killing pets is not the answer. It is an outdated approach to animal control because IT DOES NOT WORK. If it did, the population crisis would have been solved years ago. Yet, it remains.

Please contact City Manager, Daniel Valenzuela and make your voice be heard!

CODE RED!! 11 Lives at Risk 💔

These 11 precious dogs are in urgent need of your help. They're facing the heartbreak of being put down at the animal shelter if they don't find safe homes or foster care NOW. Every single one of them has the potential to bring so much joy, love, and companionship, but they need you to step up and give them a chance.

Please consider opening your heart and home to one (or more!) of these beautiful souls. Fostering or adopting could be the lifeline they desperately need. If you can’t adopt, please share this post to help spread the word. Together, we can save lives! FREE adoptions for all at risk dogs include vaccinations, microchip, and spay/neuter
