Lost Pet Resources

LOST PETS – IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW:

I’m a pet lover too; my purpose in sharing the following information with you is to arm you with the information you need to find and bring your pet home as soon as possible!

  • In Texas, pets are considered by law to be property; most shelters are only required to hold stray pets for 72 hours.
  • After a pet’s stray hold, they can go to adoption, rescue, or be killed immediately; tragically, many shelters are nothing more than animal control facilities and they kill immediately.
  • Check the shelters near you, in person, and daily. Busy shelter staffs can make mistakes and the only sure way to determine if your pet is at the shelter is to go in person daily.  With a 72 hour stray hold, time is not on anyone’s side at some shelters.
  • Dogs can travel far; either on foot, or people mistakenly thinking a pet is homeless and they take them to find a home for them. We see it far too often. Using the resources below, post “lost dog” or “lost cat” signs in the following places and websites! Online, we have seen reunited with their family sometimes from counties and even several states away, even months later.
