Brownsville Animal Regulation & Care Center
Our Mission
The Brownsville Animal Regulation and Care Center (B.A.R.C.C.) is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for both animals and our community. We strive to promote responsible pet ownership while providing compassionate care for homeless animals and ensuring public safety.
Why We Are Here
Located at 416 FM 511, our center serves as a vital resource for Brownsville, focusing on community health and animal welfare. We address the needs of our local pet population by providing essential services like medical care, microchipping, and public education to create a safer, more humane environment for everyone.
How We Care
Our team works tirelessly to provide a comfortable, healthy environment for animals during their stay at our shelter. From daily care and feeding to veterinary services like spay and neuter procedures, we ensure every animal receives the attention they deserve. We are supported by our community’s generous donations and the hard work of our staff, all working together to maintain clean and stress-free habitats.
Building Lifelong Friendships
Adoption is a joyful step toward a lifetime of companionship, and we are here to help you find your perfect match. We believe that every pet in our care deserves a loving home, and our team is committed to supporting that connection. Whether you are looking for a playful dog or a sweet cat, our adoption packages ensure your new friend is healthy, vaccinated, and ready to become a part of your family.
Join Our Community
Ready to meet your new best friend? We invite you to view our adoptable animals online or visit us at the shelter to see who is waiting for their second chance. Your support through adoption, volunteering, or donating makes a meaningful difference in the lives of the animals who need it most.
