Six low cost vaccination clinics held at the City of Wylie Animal Control during evening hours to provide residents access to low cost vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative medication. Residents can comply with registration of pets as two staff members as well as veterinarian and vet assistant are on site. Eight animals have been placed into foster care program. These were all bottle-fed kittens. Volunteers and service workers have logged 291.5 hours. Pet of the week twice monthly with Wylie News is ongoing. Facebook for social media outreach is still maintained and has proved to be an effective mode of communication for lost pets, adoptable animals and information related to the cities pet needs and services. Eighty-nine animals received services through the pre- adoption sterilization program. Staff have completed five tours pre-established. Clear the Shelter was a success as the facility cleared again this year. One animal was returned from the event. This animal was successfully adopted after the event. The facility did receive a new software program within this past budget. This software will assist with medical records and state requirements for record keeping. The facility did participate in National Night out. The facility is still active with Wylie Raiders program. We recently started a new program offering team-building projects for local business. Our first team building program experience was with Smile Doctors here in Wylie. They had a great experience and spread the word through local social media.
