San Angelo Animal Shelter & Control: Adoption Hours 2026
The San Angelo Animal Shelter is the municipal shelter operated by the City of San Angelo Animal Services Division. Its public shelter facility is listed at 3142 US Highway 67 North, San Angelo, TX 76905. Whether you are hoping to adopt, trying to find a missing dog, reporting an animal bite or calling about an animal at large, the right contact changes with the urgency of the situation.
For adoption visits: the City facility lists public hours Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.–6 p.m.. Current adoption prices are $150 for dogs, $90 for adult cats and $120 for kittens. Because shelter inventory can change quickly, check live animals before making a long drive for one specific pet.
Verified September 23, 2026
Shelter contact information, facility hours, adoption prices, 2026 Animal Control fees, staff names, after-hours routing, lost/found guidance, local animal rules and rabies information were checked against current City of San Angelo sources.
Address ZIP discrepancy handled
The City’s dedicated shelter facility listing uses 76905, while one Animal Services contact page displays 76903. This guide uses the facility-specific 3142 US Highway 67 North, San Angelo, TX 76905 for navigation rather than silently choosing the conflicting contact-page ZIP.
Independent guide
Animal-Shelter.org is not the City of San Angelo, San Angelo Animal Services, San Angelo Police Department or a veterinary clinic. Official City pages control current services and policies.
Choose the Right San Angelo Animal Services Route
Adoption, a loose dog, an animal bite and a missing pet need different next steps. Use the route that matches what is actually happening.
San Angelo Animal Shelter Adoption Hours 2026
The City’s facility listing currently shows the shelter open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Holiday closures can override normal hours, so check City notices when visiting around a municipal holiday.

A Practical San Angelo Adoption Plan
The City’s current Animal Services page publishes fees and shelter information but does not lay out one detailed, step-by-step online adoption application workflow. The safest visit plan is therefore simple and practical.
Check current shelter inventory first
The City directs residents to live animal inventory through 24PetConnect. Save the pet’s ID and a few backup choices.
Visit during public shelter hours
Plan your visit Monday through Friday between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. and arrive well before closing.
Ask about current status
Confirm the animal is actually available and ask whether there are reclaim, medical or other timing issues.
Ask fit questions
A photo can make you fall in love quickly. Before committing, ask staff about observed behavior, size, activity level, known health needs and realistic home fit.
Confirm the exact adoption price
Current City prices differ for dogs, adult cats, kittens, livestock, chickens and pocket pets.
Prepare safe transport
Bring a secure carrier for cats and small pets, or a safe leash/harness/crate plan for a dog.
San Angelo Animal Shelter Adoption Prices
These amounts are currently published by City of San Angelo Animal Services. Ask the shelter what medical care, sterilization or other services are included for the individual animal rather than assuming details not stated on the current public fee listing.
| Animal | Current adoption price | Practical note |
|---|---|---|
| Dog | $150 | Ask staff about the individual dog’s medical and microchip status before checkout. |
| Adult cat | $90 | Bring a secure cat carrier. |
| Kitten | $120 | Ask about age-specific vaccine and follow-up needs. |
| Livestock | $150 | Confirm legal housing and safe transport before adopting. |
| Chicken | $25 | Review local livestock/fowl rules before bringing the animal home. |
| Pocket pet | $25 | Ask about species-specific diet, housing and care. |
Emergency & Important Contacts
Each number below is labeled only for the purpose the City publishes. The after-hours number is a City non-emergency dispatch route; it is not a substitute for 911 when there is immediate danger.
| Contact | Number | Verified purpose |
|---|---|---|
| San Angelo Animal Services | 325-657-4224 | Animal-related issues, shelter questions, violations, bites, injured/dead animals and normal Animal Services routing. |
| After-Hours / Non-Emergency Dispatch | 325-657-4315 | City non-emergency dispatch. San Angelo’s Animal Services pages use this number for after-hours animal-emergency routing and time-sensitive complaints outside normal Animal Services hours. |
| Emergency | 911 | Immediate emergency requiring emergency response. |
Reporting an Animal Violation
San Angelo provides a dedicated Animal Services violation form, but the City specifically says not to rely on the form alone when the issue is time-sensitive.
Time-sensitive concern
Call Animal Services at 325-657-4224 Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–5 p.m.
After hours
Use City non-emergency dispatch at 325-657-4315 for a time-sensitive animal concern outside those hours.
Online complaint
The City’s form currently includes concerns such as dog at large, tethered dog, unaltered pets, cruelty and livestock-location issues.
Lost or Found Pet in San Angelo
A missing pet can make every hour feel long. San Angelo’s current guidance combines shelter inventory, neighborhood searching, microchip checks and temporary community help rather than relying on one website alone.
If your pet is missing
- Check the City’s live shelter inventory through 24PetConnect.
- Use ZIP code 76905 when filtering the live inventory.
- Check the City’s “Claim Your Canine” Facebook posts.
- Post a recent photo and useful description on local lost-pet channels.
- Visit or call Animal Services quickly if a shelter animal could be yours.
- Confirm that your microchip company has your current phone number.
If you found a pet
- Safely secure the animal if you can do so without putting yourself at risk.
- If you cannot safely contain it, call 325-657-4224.
- Check tags, collars and rabies-tag information.
- Have the animal scanned for a microchip at Animal Services or another local scanner location.
- The City suggests holding a found pet for up to 48 hours when you are able and comfortable doing so.
- Ask about the Good Samaritan program if temporary care is possible.
Reclaiming an Impounded Animal
The current 2026 City fee schedule states that an animal or fowl impounded while running at large may be held for 72 hours, during which an owner can redeem the animal with satisfactory proof of ownership and applicable fees.
| Reclaim-related fee | Current amount | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Small animal / fowl impound | $36 | Base impound fee listed by the City’s 2026 fee schedule. |
| Boarding | $10 per day | Begins at 12:01 a.m. the day following impoundment; a partial day is charged as a full day. |
| Livestock impound | $36 | Current listed livestock impound fee. |
| Necessary health care | Additional | The City fee schedule allows necessary health-care costs during impoundment to be added. |
Owner Surrender in San Angelo
The current City fee schedule lists animal surrender at $10, but the official pages reviewed for this update do not publish a separate walk-in surrender schedule or guarantee immediate intake.
Current listed surrender fee
The City of San Angelo’s 2026 fee schedule lists animal surrender at $10.
Call before transporting an owned pet
Because current public pages do not clearly publish a surrender appointment window, call 325-657-4224 and confirm intake availability, documents and timing first.
Microchip, Heartworm & Other Animal Services Fees
San Angelo’s municipal shelter offers or charges for several limited animal-health support services. These are not the same thing as operating a full public veterinary hospital.
| Service | Current listed fee | Important context |
|---|---|---|
| Dog / cat microchip | $13 | Current 2026 City fee schedule amount. |
| Heartworm test | $10 | Limited listed Animal Services fee; it does not establish a full veterinary-exam service. |
| Owner-requested flea/tick treatment | $8 | Listed in the 2026 Animal Control fee schedule. |
| Animal pickup at owner’s request | $25 | Confirm eligibility and routing with Animal Services. |
| Transport to veterinarian | $25 | City fee schedule lists a transport-to-vet fee. It does not mean Animal Services itself is a vet hospital. |
San Angelo Spay & Neuter Assistance
The City’s current 2026 fee schedule includes an income-based spay/neuter program. The listed fee range depends on the federal poverty level.
Lower end
The current program begins at $10 for qualifying applicants.
Upper listed amount
The current fee schedule lists up to $65 depending on federal poverty level.
Eligibility first
The fee schedule does not by itself explain every appointment or documentation step. Contact Animal Services for current eligibility and scheduling.
Veterinary Hospital, Doctor & Appointment Clarification
No public shelter veterinary hospital identified
Current City sources do not describe San Angelo Animal Shelter as a public full-service veterinary hospital or community veterinary clinic.
No named public shelter veterinarian verified
The current City pages reviewed for this guide do not publish a named veterinarian with public appointment hours at the shelter. This article therefore does not invent a doctor name.
Limited health-support fees are real
Microchips, heartworm testing, flea/tick treatment, spay/neuter assistance and vet transport appear in the City’s current Animal Control fee schedule.
VeterinaryCare,
VeterinaryClinic,
Hospital
or Physician
merely because the shelter has limited animal-health services.
Animal Bites, Bats & Rabies in San Angelo
Rabies is not an abstract issue locally. The City reported a confirmed rabies exposure in San Angelo in 2026 after a dog came into contact with a deceased bat.
Report animal bites
The City Animal Services page directs people who have been bitten by an animal to call 325-657-4224.
Do not handle a bat
The City’s 2026 rabies notice says to contact Animal Services if a bat is inside your home or if you find one grounded or injured.
Get medical care for exposure
The City advises seeking medical attention promptly after bites or scratches from wild animals.
Injured or Dead Animals: Who Handles Pickup?
City street or public right-of-way
Call Animal Services at 325-657-4224 to report an injured or dead animal on a City-owned street or right-of-way.
Private property
The homeowner is normally responsible for removal. The City’s exception is a top rabies-risk animal such as a coyote, skunk, raccoon, fox or bat; contact Animal Services for assistance in that situation.
Community Cats & Found Kittens in San Angelo
San Angelo uses a different approach for community cats than simply removing every outdoor cat. The City’s cat-resource page supports trap-neuter-return and offers guidance for found kittens.
Do not automatically remove young kittens
The City notes that many kittens are still being cared for by their mother and may not need immediate human removal.
Community-cat TNR
San Angelo Animal Services encourages humane trapping, spay/neuter, vaccination and return for community cats.
Colony assistance
The City asks residents with a colony needing spay/neuter help to contact Animal Services through its current community-cat route.

The City says dogs and cats over four months must be current on rabies vaccination, spayed/neutered unless an exception applies, and microchipped.
City registration
Cats, dogs, ferrets and potbellied pigs inside City limits must be registered. This guide does not publish a registration fee because a current amount was not verified from the sources reviewed.
