If you need assistance from Animal Control, please call 940-761-7824. Animal Services front desk can be reached at 940-761-8894**
We are the City of Wichita Falls Animal Services Center, a division of the Wichita Falls-Wichita County Public Health District. Animal Control Officers work from 8am-5pm Monday-Friday and are on-call Saturday and Sunday. Emergencies are screened via an after-hours eme
rgency phone and on holidays. Saturdays and Sundays, ACOs can be contacted by leaving a voicemail or calling the emergency phone. The Animal Services Center is open to the public 11am-6pm Monday-Friday, and 10am-2pm on Saturdays. If you are looking to adopt, all other pets in your home must be spayed/neutered and current on rabies vaccinations and City licenses (if you live in Wichita Falls). You will also need a pre-paid spay/neuter appointment for the pet you are adopting and will need to provide us proof of the completed surgery within 10 days of adoption. If adopting a puppy or kitten, we will provide you with a deadline to have the procedure done. https://www.wichitafallstx.gov/2259/ANIMALS-CURRENTLY-IN-THE-SHELTER
