Victoria County Commissioners Court will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Victoria County Animal Services facility on Saturday, February 14, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at 513 Profit Street. The free event is open to the public and will include guest speakers, facility tours, and special adoption promotions.

Attendees will have the opportunity to tour the new, fully renovated facility and participate in same-day adoption specials. Guests will receive 50% off adoption vouchers, and the first 10 adoptions will receive a dozen roses in celebration of Valentine’s Day. Light refreshments will be provided.

The new 16,000-square-foot facility represents a more than $3 million investment by Victoria County to expand and improve local animal services. The building was generously donated by the Heilker family in December of 2023.

Facility upgrades include a state-of-the-art cleaning and sanitation system, fully indoor kennels and runs in a climate-controlled environment, expanded storage, a walk-in freezer, and other improvements designed to enhance operations and animal care.

Victoria County Commissioners Court and Victoria County Animal Services officials will be on hand to mark the opening and speak about the impact the new facility will have on the community.
