Amarillo Animal Management & Welfare

Amarillo's animal shelter is offering half-price adoptions and grade-based discounts this Memorial Day weekend for 22 animals who have waited over 50 days for a forever home and are ready to graduate from the shelter.

Clear The Shelter is this weekend. You can get a four-legged friend and it won't break the bank.

Limited spots available for free spaying and neutering of dogs and other pets in Amarillo.

When it comes to pet ownership, the most responsible thing you can do is make sure you have your pet spayed or neutered.

When you are a pet owner there is so much you have to do. You want to be responsible. You want to make sure your pets are around for a long time. When you get a pet you have to go through so much. You need to make sure they are set up from the beginning.

Hopefully several organizations teaming up with the city will help with the overpopulation issue.

Despite the rumors, Amarillo Animal Management & Welfare has not changed their surrender policy.

I love it when two entities can team up and create something special for the city. This is going to be a special partnership that will benefit students and animals alike.

Are your kiddos asking for a pet for your home. Yes, having a dog or cat is a great bonding time for the kids. It's a great chance to teach them responsibility. When my daughter was growing up we had all sorts of pets throughout her time living at home.

Having a pet escape your yard has got to be one of the scariest things I have gone through. My dogs used to be escape artists. Usually I would get a call that they are gathering at the Chick-fil-A or Walgreens on Georgia. That was right down the street from where I was living at the time.
