Lubbock Shelter Overwhelmed After July 4 | Lubbock News
Description
Lubbock Animal Services is bursting at the seams after the Fourth of July fireworks sent dozens of scared dogs fleeing—leading to overcrowding, stress, and compromised care. Director Steven Greene urges pet owners to microchip their animals (it’s permanent, linked to a national database, and registration must be updated) and highlights that every animal gets essential shots, flea/tick treatment, and deworming. Spaying/neutering is offered even for pets being adopted, with flexible payment options. Lost pets? Come in person—photos on Facebook aren’t enough to prove ownership. No chip or tag? Animals stay 72 hours before adoption. And here’s the big one: dog adoptions are FREE through the end of July. The shelter’s open 6 days a week, 10 AM to 7 PM—perfect timing to find your new furry family member.
