Background and Discussion:
Request for approval of a temporary custody agreement with All Texas Dachshund Rescue to allow the organization to take custody of certain animals needing acute, urgent, veterinary care before the expiration of the three-day hold period mandated by the Harris County Animal Control Regulations.
Expected Impact:
Impounded sick or injured animals may leave the Harris County Animal Shelter to receive urgent veterinary care, not available in the shelter, prior to the 3-day holding period. This will also free up space in the already crowded facility.
Alternative Options:
If not approved, these sick or injured animals will suffer while waiting until the 3-day period is over before they can leave to receive urgent veterinary care not available in the shelter.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
X Public Health
_ Transportation
_ Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
