BROWNSVILLE, Texas – The Brownsville Animal Regulation Care Center (BARCC) is currently facing a critical situation with its animal population, as they are over capacity.
The shelter has a large number of dogs and cats under their care, and they are anticipating even more dogs to arrive soon. To address this urgent issue, BARCC is seeking the assistance of residents in the Rio Grande Valley to either adopt or foster these animals.
Dr. Antonio Caldwell, the Deputy Director of BARCC, emphasizes the importance of finding homes for these animals. The shelter’s limited space means that they need the support of the community to ensure that these dogs and cats havea chance at finding loving families.
Shelter workers are urging potential adopters and fosters to visit the shelter promptly to help alleviate the situation. The shelter’s address is 416 FM 511. Texas.
Interested individuals can go to the animal shelter to meet the animals available for adoption or fostering andpotentially bring one home. All the animals at the care center are in urgent need of homes and families to care for them.
The animal shelter is not only encouraging adoption but also inviting people to foster animals until they can find permanent homes. This temporary arrangement is crucial for managing the increasing number of animals in the community.
The adoption fees for dogs at the shelter are currently waived, while cat adoption fees are set at $49. The care center ensures that all pets are properly vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed or neutered before they are adopted or fostered.
The animal shelter emphasizes that they have dogs of various sizes, shapes, and ages available for adoption.Fostering is highlighted as a way to make a significant difference in saving lives and accommodating the growing population of pets in the community.
