The Rockwall Animal Services and Adoption Center is a safe haven for the lost, abandoned and abused animals in the community. The staff does an outstanding job in providing proper care and attention to the homeless animals, including reuniting them with their owners – and they are helped by a wonderful group of community volunteers. Our adoption program is growing by leaps and bounds.

We invite you to come by the center the week of Nov. 1, and be sure to join us on Saturday, Nov. 6
from 10 a.m. until noon to experience the celebration fun and our wonderful world of animals – you might
even want to take a pet home!

Public/private partnerships are needed to enhance this great City of Rockwall event. Please call
Animal Services at (972)771-7750 to learn more about this wonderful community program.
