Huntsville Animal Services makes every effort to contact owners when an animal comes into the shelter with tags on.  Please review the current tags on your pet and make sure all the information is correct.  Huntsville Animal Services averages 150 animals brought into the shelter each week.  PLEASE, if you are missing a pet, come to the shelter as soon as possible to see if we have your pet.  Continue looking at the shelter every 2-3 days.
