The director further explained how the current space is not meant for animals. “We’ve now come across the point in time where we are progressive and we are advancing our programs where we need a larger footprint and more space to do the life saving programs that we’ve already implemented.” We were retrofitted into a church, and that’s what our shelter is,” said Sites. “That’s just not what the design was for.
The theory for shelters back then was to “catch and euthanize,” meaning the facilities weren’t meant for long stays and progressive sheltering. Sites said the building Animal Care and Control is in at Butler and Hillegas roads was designed 22 years ago.
They’ve got to figure out the entire city and what every department does, so they’re making the best decisions that they can with the information they have.” “And potentially felt like it was a want versus a need… I mean, they have a hard job. “I feel like it was just maybe not understanding ‘the why’ completely,” said Sites. When the building was built, the room was intended for food storage.
The room the shelter currently uses to assess dogs that come in.
