Shelter FAQs

At the Animal Care & Adoption Center, we encourage and respect the animal-human bond while anticipating and providing services that ensure public health and safety through the proper promotion of animal welfare. Proactive animal-control enforcement, quality education in recognizing and preventing animal cruelty, and the enactment of progressive humane initiatives to relieve animal suffering are imperative. We also provide care and placement for unwanted animals through quality adoptions, licensed rescue, foster programs and transport programs.
The Animal Care and Adoption Center is a "full service" operation. We take in animals that are brought in by City of Texarkana, Arkansas, Texarkana, Texas, Nash, Texas, and Wake Village, Texas Animal Control officers, animals owned by citizens of Miller and Bowie County, and unwanted strays found in Miller and Bowie County.
