The Bowie Animal Control Section
is a division of the Bowie Police Department Support Services Division. This section
provides a unique concept to the citizens of the City, by combining activities
of a law enforcement agency that protects people and their property with a
humane organization that protects animals.
Irresponsible pet ownership and pet
over-population are the main reasons that any animal control agency exists. Pets
can provide significant benefits for families. When pets are not properly cared
for, they can become not only a nuisance, but also a threat to the health and
safety of neighbors.
The CITY OF BOWIE Animal
Control section has a mission to balance the health, safety and welfare needs of
people and animals within the CITY OF BOWIE.
The CITY OF BOWIE Animal Shelter facility is located
at 1508 E. Wise Street. The shelter provides humane care for animals impounded until they are
returned to their owner, adopted to a new family, or humanely euthanized.
