Strategic Priority 1. Increase Community Awareness and Owner Responsibility
Achieving a “no kill” goal by 2012 requires increasing the entire community’s awareness of the critical animal care issues that the City of San Antonio faces. More importantly, it also requires increasing the level of responsibility that pet owners take for the care and treatment of their animals. A survey of the community’s animal care needs, values, and practices will provide a starting point for addressing this priority. After that baseline is established, a wide range of awareness building and educational efforts will be used to increase owner responsibility and engage the community in improving the quality of animal care in the City of San Antonio.
