Hood County Animal Control 1550 Weatherford Highway, Granbury, TX 76048

"As an animal rescuer, HCAC is by far the best shelter I’ve ever worked with. They go above and beyond to save as many lives as they can. Best shelter EVER!"

"Best little kitty in the world… this is where I got Penelope."

"The rudest ladies I’ve ever met. Barely talked to me while they held their own conversations. Not a place you should be giving your money."

"We adopted a beautiful puppy from Hood County Animal shelter in July. She was infected/infested with antibiotic resistant Hookworms and Coccidiosis. She had a bowel movement immediately before they released her to us. As soon as we got home wit her, 5 minutes away she pooped huge, live worms. When we took her to the vet the next day we were informed that Hood County was infested with antibiotic resistant worms and coccidiosis. They didn’t even mention the live worms in her stool. Fast forward to having her spayed- The voucher they provided was worthless as they want it done prior to the animal being 6 months old. Not at all what the vet recommends. I have since moved out of town and my dog is scheduled to be spayed next Tuesday, on my dime, which is fine. I received a call today informing me that I will be receiving a citation if I don’t provide them proof of her being spayed, the female officer was being a bully. I planned on providing the documentation as I agreed in the adoption release. Very poorly educated staff and likely a major cause of the antibiotic resistant infestation of worms and coccidiosis in Hood County. No transparency about the condition of the animals they adopt out!"

"I adopted a 3 month old lab pit mix a while back and at first the staff was a little hesitant to bring her out as I had my 2 toddlers with me because she was around 35lbs and full of puppy energy but once we got her in a room she immediately took to me and my kiddos. We had a family discussion and decided to adopt. We explained that we had an appointment to get to and would not be able to take her until the following Monday due to them closing soon. They placed a temporary do not adopt tag on her for us. When I came in Monday morning to adopt and fill out paperwork the staff was very friendly. Once we got this sweet girl home she very quickly came out of her shell and has the most wonderful personality. She is very gentle with the kiddos and when we go for walks as a family she’s always by their side. She’s now 10 months old and a very loyal pup."
