Angeles City’s dog pound, animal shelter gets permit anew

The Bureau of Animal Industry (BAI) has granted the renewal of a certificate of the Angeles City government’s Dog Pound and Animal Shelter.

The accreditation gave authority to the city government, under Mayor Carmelo Lazatin Jr., the authority to ensure animal welfare and monitor backyard pet breeders.

It assures adequate care and shelter for the animals and prevents their abuse, maltreatment, cruelty, and exploitation, the City Information Office (CIO) said.

The facility is also the only no-kill animal pound in Pampanga and the second in Central Luzon, which operates with BAI certification.

“Patuloy din po ang paglulunsad natin ng mga programa na mangangalaga sa kapakanan ng mga animals natin,” Lazatin said.

“Maraming salamat po sa BAI sa pag-grant ng banibagong certification na ito sa Angeles City. This is our license to operate,” he added.
