The City of Houston and Harris County may unite on the
issues of stray animals. The two organizations are currently in discussions on
merging their stray animal programs together.
As of now, Harris County concentrates on unincorporated
areas of the county, despite having animal shelters in Houston city limits. The
county got in trouble when it refused to help a German shepard who was shot,
even though an animal shelter was only 7 miles away. City and county leaders
will meet October 12th, in order to hold a “summit” on stray animals
and having a united city/county program will be discussed. This is an important
problem that needs to be fixed but I’m confident the city and county will fix
it.
