The SPCA of Texas is a nonprofit animal welfare organization serving North Texas. Its main animal care center is on Lone Star Drive in West Dallas.
The organization’s best-known work is pet adoption. Dogs, cats and other animals in its care are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped before they go home, and adoptable animals are listed on its website. The SPCA of Texas also runs low-cost veterinary clinics and spay and neuter services for pet owners, which help keep pets healthy and reduce the number of animals entering shelters.
The organization investigates animal cruelty and neglect complaints and works with law enforcement on rescues. It also runs community programs that help pet owners keep their animals rather than surrender them.
The SPCA of Texas depends on donations and volunteers. People who want to adopt, volunteer, donate or report animal cruelty can find details on its website. The main number is (214) 742-7722.
