DAS will send officers to animal welfare conference thanks to Maddie’s Fund

This just in – it appears that six-eight Dallas Animal Services employees may get to go the Texas Unites Conference after all.  We’re told Dallas Animal Services and a couple of other area animal welfare groups participated in a Community Collaborative project sponsored by Maddie’s Fund recently.  Dallas Animal Services received a $ 12,000 grant for their participation.  The grant money has been earmarked for training and equipment.  The more skeptical among us can’t help but notice the City isn’t spending a dime here, and so this in no way answers the question “Is the City committed to training and education for Animal Services?”
