Corpus Christie, Texas working on animal control issues

After reading this story about Corpus Christie, Texas, I believe most animal control agencies want to do the right thing. They are hampered by inadequate funding and manpower. When the county decides animal control is important, things can begin to change. Animal control agencies were first begun to combat problems with rabies/dog bites and were included under the health department. Then, twenty or so years ago, many agencies were moved to be under the sheriff's department. Corpus Christie was not one of those cities. They are now.

They also received $80,000 more money to fund more officers. This may help get the animal situation under control there.

Kudos to Corpus Christie for trying to get better. It does take all of us working together to begin to get this under control
