How do I surrender a stray dog to BARC without waiting?
Services 3 answers • Alice A
I'm trying to find a way to surrender a stray dog to BARC in Houston, but their online appointment system is booked and 311 can't give me an estimated wait time. I was told not to just take the dog to the shelter, but I need to do something soon.

I've had success surrendering stray dogs to BARC on Mondays from 1-3 pm, which is their open intake time. It's first come, first served, so it's a good idea to confirm their availability before heading over.

I've recently taken in two stray pups and am trying to rehome them, but I understand that the shelter might be the last resort for some people. You can check the Houston shelter's appointment availability every hour on the hour, even if it's grayed out online.

In my experience, BARC opens appointments 7 days out for their 'appointment only' days, which are Sunday, Wednesday, and Saturday. You can check their website tomorrow for appointments available for next Wednesday, and consider showing up early. You can also try open intake on Mondays from 1-3 pm.
