The shelter, located at 1330 Columbia Drive, Richardson, had more than 50 dogs last week despite having a maximum capacity of 44. Animal Shelter Manager Noura Jammal said the shelter needs the public’s help in finding “forever homes” for its pets with nearly 40 dogs at the shelter being available for adoption.
Richardson residents who are unable to adopt one of the dogs can also help by becoming a Doggy Day Out volunteer or by offering foster care for one of the shelter animals, Jammal said.
The shelter previously underwent renovations in its dog kennels, which included removing the existing chain link kennel enclosures, installing modern kennel enclosures with dog doors/frames, installing acoustic panels, painting the kennel suite walls and installing a new epoxy floor coating system.
