The SPCA of Texas does not euthanize animals due to time or lack of space. To give each animal the best chance at a happy life, the SPCA of Texas only accepts owner surrendered pets based on available space with reservations required. This means that surrendered animals will be taken in based on available space, by a reservation only that is made on a first-come, first-served basis. Please see our Surrender/Rehome page for information and to schedule an appointment if space is available.
The SPCA of Texas does not take in stray animals, except for those found within unincorporated Dallas County or in Ellis County. This increases the likelihood that the stray animal will be reunited with their owner. Individuals who have found a stay animal will be directed to the animal control agency closest to where the animal was found.
