Cameron County Animal Shelter

Its so frustrating. They put animals up for adoption on their Facebook page and put the number to call, but they dont bother to answer their phones. I called them about 6 times. I even showed up to the center and nobody answered the door. Even though there were obviously people working. I saw at least 5 cars in the parking area.

I adopted two bonded male 1yo lab mixes from the Cameron County Animal Shelter in Nov '21. As a citizen of Harlingen I adopted them for the cost of their rabies vaccines. The pups were not neutered or vetted so I made an appointment for them to be seen ASAP. (Schedule an appointment or two with your vet ahead of time if you plan to pick up a pup here.)

Rude service. Animals poorly taken care of . Poor husky was malnourished to the point she didnt want to eat but just drink water.she kept throwing up not sustaining any solids . They Didnt even let us walk her around nor to see if she could walk willingly. Transaction was rushed out. Once we had her to our home and getting her set up our son tried hugging he

It's really bad service, and you need an appointment, apparently. They considered you only if you want to adopt a pet.
