Following the 4th of July fireworks, many pets in the area have become separated from their families due to the noise. Dallas Animal Services is preparing for an influx of lost pets. The kennels at Dallas Animal Services are already overcrowded, with more animals expected in the coming days.

As of Sunday morning, over 400 pets were being held at the facility. Further information on the situation and what to do if you have lost a pet is available from Dallas Animal Services and other local shelters and rescues, who typically see a significant increase in lost pets during this time.
