Agenda Item
Discuss, consider and take appropriate action on a request for the Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter to apply for a grant to aid in the lessening of lost dogs brought to the shelter from Best Friends Animal Society.
Background
The Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter would like to request a grant from the Best Friends Animal Society for microchip and tag clinics for the community. Dogs with microchips and tags are more likely to be reunited in the community without having to use shelter resources. This grant request would also fund microchip stations to be placed in 30 areas across the county to aid citizens to scan lost dogs for a microchip. A portion of the grant would be used for monthly marketing to promote reunions in the community, where the microchip stations are located, and how to use them.
