Live Oak Animal Control saved 91.67% of animals served in 2023, according to data from the national nonprofit organization Best Friends Animal Society. For reaching above 90%, the facility was recognized as a no-kill shelter.
Data shows a total of 444 pets entering the shelter during the year, with 407 of those animals being saved.
What else?
Best Friends Animal Society's primary goal is to reach no-kill nationwide by 2025. Using a blend of data from 2020-23, the organization identified Texas and California as top priority states for making shelters no-kill, meaning these two states have the lowest percentage of animals saved when compared to other states.
