Hood County Animal Shelter Proposal

Adoption Fees and Voucher Program

Hood County Animal Control will now begin collecting an "Adoption Fee" of $75 for non altered animals and $15 for previously altered animals. This will cover the cost of sterilizing the animal plus a rabies vaccination, or rabies vaccination if previously sterilized. The person adopting the animal will receive a numbered voucher for one of 5 local veterinary clinics who have graciously agreed to participate in this program.

The clinics are:

Granbury Animal Clinic

Town and Country Animal Clinic

All Creatures Animal Hospital

Mesquite Ridge Small Animal Hospital

Long Creek Animal Hospital

The new owner will be responsible for making the appointment with one of the participating veterinarians and transporting the animal to the selected provider within 30 days of adoption.

All Adoptions are from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM
