Animal Control

The Humane Society of North Texas operates a county owned animal and adoption facility at 1904 US Highway 175; next to the county justice center. They may be contacted at 469-376-4120 or kaufman@hsnt.org.

Since the Kaufman facility is often full, the county also utilizes an animal shelter located in Henderson County, 10200 Arnold Hills Rd., Seven Points, Texas, (903) 432-3422.


Talty does not operate an animal control facility.  Please call 911 if you are in immediate danger.
