The dedication was a true celebration of the partnerships and collaboration that lead to the creation of this center. Representatives from IU South Bend, South Bend Heritage Foundation, and the City of South Bend joined fellow South Bend residents at the Centerfor History and after opening remarks, walked to the Natatorium at 1044 W. Washington Street. The event remembered the past from which we have come and celebrated the diversity and collaboration that have helped us progress to a better day. South Bend's New Animal Shelter On May 10, 2010, South Bend Animal Care and Control (SBACC) received the final approval to move forward with the construction of the much anticipated new shelter. Unlike the current 3,100 square -foot facility, the new 9,400 square -foot shelter will give SBACC room for several additional kennels and cages as well as: handicap accessible, expanded lobby and reception area, a spay- neuter surgery clinic, interaction rooms for families to meet with prospective pets and an adoption preparation area for bathing and grooming of animals. Every year, SBACC handles over 4,000 animals, answers over 7,000 calls for service, handles over 900 after hours emergency calls and has officers available /on -call 24x7, 365 days. SBACC provides an array of services, including: patrol services, support for emergency response teams (South Bend Fire and Police), lost animal reclaim, pet adoptions, low cost micro - chipping, low cost spay /neuter clinics, licensing, partnerships with local and national rescue agencies, and an educational alliance with Brown Mackie Veterinary Technician Program. We hope you will join us in celebrating this significant step forward in caring for the abandoned animals in our community. Together we're working to make South Bend a "No More Homeless Pets" community.
