If reducing costs for your animal services’ program, while improving customer service and public support, interests you then Washoe County, Nevada may provide some ideas that can benefit your program. Washoe County Regional Animal Services (WCRAS) has been gaining some national attention for having one of the lowest euthanasia rates in the country. This success is due to a combination of a collaborative relationship with the local animal rescue organizations, its use of technology and its pet friendly policies. This combination is not only providing better customer service and garnering strong public support but it is also proving to be cost effective; creating a true Win-Win for the community.
