Information & Education
So often when you start talking about kindness to animals…someone comments that starving and mistreated children should come first. The issue can’t be divided like that. It isn’t a choice between animals and children. It’s our duty to care for both. Kindness is the important thing. Kids and animals are our responsibility. ~Minnie Pearl |
Research shows that children who are taught to be kind towards animals tend to mature into compassionate adults.
At the Brazos Animal Shelter, we are guided by an ethic of compassion and are delighted to share this philosophy with our community, especially children.

Shelter Tours
Perfect for school groups (ages 7 and up), clubs, scout troops and others who want to learn more about us, we offer tours Monday thru Friday. Your group will visit our dog, cat and critter adoption center. Through our Humane Education Program, we’ll teach the importance of having respect and empathy for all types of animals.
Tours are free, but we gladly accept donations.
