Who We Are
Dallas Animal Services and Adoption Center is located just a few minutes West of Downtown Dallas. Dallas Animal Services provides animal control for the City of Dallas. Dogs and cats are evaluated by our veterinary staff after their stray hold is over if they have not been reclaimed by their owners. Dogs and cats that are healthy and have good temperaments, become available for adoption, space permitting. We always have a large variety of pets available: Everything from 2-pound Chihuahuas to 90-pound Great Danes, and 6-week-old fur-babies to a 10-year-old fur-seniors. Many people think that shelters are only for mutts, but about 25% of the animals that end up in shelters are, if fact, purebred! You just never know what kind of dog or cat you might find in a shelter - that's what makes adopting so much fun! And when you adopt a shelter pet, you're not only getting a loving, lifelong companion, but you're also saving the life of a precious animal. Please come visit us. Your new best friend is just waiting to meet you!

News
OUR BEAUTIFUL NEW SHELTER IS LOCATED AT 1818 N. WESTMORELAND ON THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF I-30. While everyone and everything is still settling, the staff and animals are loving their new digs. :)
Our Goal
The Pet Adoption Program's goal is to bring deserving dogs and cats together with loving, responsible owners while reducing the number of animals which are needlessly destroyed each year due to unavailable homes. We hope your visit to our site will both inform and encourage you to visit our shelter and give that "special" dog or cat a place in your heart and home. All animals adopted from our shelter are microchipped and sterilized.To view some of our available pets click here.
