Animal Control

The City operates an Animal Control Shelter near 17th Street and Canal; the Shelter meets Texas Department of Health requirements for animal shelters and provides a safe, comfortable, temporary home for dogs waiting for their owners to pick them up.

City of Nederland animal control ordinances require that when a dog is off of its owner's property, it must be on a leash. Please be responsible and keep your dog controlled at all times. This not only protects the safety and rights of other citizens, but keeps your pet safe and prevents the pet from being lost. Whether you own a dog or a cat, remember to have your pet spayed or neutered.
