A Message From the Manager ...

In Case You Missed It ...
Arlington Animal Services received a $ 35,000 grant from the Petco Foundation . With this money , AAS will partner with Texas Coalition for Animal Protection to spay and neuter 600 domestic and feral cats !
As staff , we are always working to educate ourselves on how we can become better as an organization for the betterment of the animals who come into our care . We are so excited to start implementing some changes over the next several weeks and months . Updated technology , behavior evaluations and bigger and better events are just a few of the fun things in the works ! We appreciate the support of our city council , community members , volunteers , rescue partners and all of the supporters for everything you do for our shelter and the animals in our care . As we continue to grow as an organization and become more innovative in our programs , we hope you all continue to grow alongside of us !

Happy Tails !
