" Help Us Help Them " To provide a comfortable, safe and healthy environment for the abandoned, surrendered, abused, unwanted and lost animals in our community while exerting every effort to locate kind and caring “forever” homes for them. In 1997, the City of Winnsboro planned and built a 1700 square foot animal shelter to handle the increasing volume of neglected and unwanted animals. The shelte

r was started with a $10,000.00 donation and opened, and continues today, as a certified quarantine facility and is inspected annually by the State of Texas Health Department. The shelter is located on 5 acres of land to allow for growth. Two other Texas cities have used the Winnsboro Shelter plan as a model for their shelters, Jefferson and Bonham, Texas. The Shelter currently has 15 indoor dog runs (eight runs measure 3’ x 8’, seven runs measure 3’ x 5’) and 9 feline cages. The shelter handles approximately 1000 – 1200 plus animals each year. The Shelter quarantine/exam room has a 5 unit stainless steel cage bank and a stainless steel exam table. Funds for these items came from the annual garage sale that we have in the spring.

Anyone missing these 2 or know where they may belong. Someone tied them up outside the shelter after 10pm last night.

We may not always have the best friend your looking for but someonelse might. This young male fluff is sweet as can be. Joe feels like cotton and would make a good winter cuddler. Winter will come around before you know it. Plus I'm sure Joe wouldnt mind a shave. Contact Wood CO if your interested in adopting. Maybe he isnt the one but they have 40 plus others to choose from.

Bingo night Saturday!!

So much fun was had at the 2023 Bingo fundraiser.

Shelters play a big role in spaying and neutering homeless animals and pets alike, mitigating dog and cat overpopulation and spreading awareness of homeless animals. And we can use your support. If you can’t donate financially, donate your time, and volunteer to help our furry friends!

The best opportunity is coming up this Saturday, August 17th, at our Family Bingo Night. Don't miss out!

The Shelter quarantine/exam room has just been updated with a 5 unit stainless steel cage bank and a stainless steel exam table. Funds for these items came from the annual garage sale that we have in the spring. In 2010, approximately 70% of the Shelter animals were adopted, 20% were moved to other shelter programs in East Texas and Colorado and 10% were euthanized due to illness or injury. The Shelter is working to increase the adoption percentage within the area thru advertising and promotions.

All of the dogs are currently heart worm tested, rabies vaccinated, and get at least 4 doses of 7-1 while they are in the shelter depending on age, as well as other problems they may have. Cats are given their feline shot, rabies vaccinated, as well as other problems they may have. Please stop by any time to see these wonderful animals we have here. Adoptions start at 35 dollars.
