Spay-neuter surge ends, but Dallas pet culture has shifted | Opinion
Dallas Animal Services officer Reid Koenig pulls a street dog using a catch pole after rescuing it underneath a staircase of a house in South Dallas on Wednesday, June 29, 2022. A spay-neuter program ended but Dallas is now better equipped to handle loose dogs in southern Dallas.The Southern Dallas Spay Neuter Surge, a privately funded program, ended in October after almost six years. The end of this project does not mean, however, there will be an increase in dog attacks.
Southern Dallas Spay Neuter Surge sterilized a total of 68,000 dogs and provided core vaccinations and microchips, according to a. A decrease of 58% in the loose-dog population in southern Dallas since 2016 is proof of the program’s success. “The intent of the project was getting the community to a place they hadn’t been before [...] creating an environment for success in the future,” Asmus said.
Without the philanthropic push of the surge — approximately $24 million during its lifespan — much of the weight to sterilize dogs will fall now on Dallas Animal Services. DAS director MeLissa Weber told us she is confident that southern Dallas will “stay on the trajectory that does not get us back to more dog attacks.”
