EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — It’s Mutt Monday at KTSM!
This week, our friends from El Paso Animal Services brought Pogo for us to meet and hang out with.
Pogo is just one of the pets you can visit or take home from their brand-new Westside Adoption Center. 5625 Confetti Dr.
To celebrate, El Paso Animal Services is hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 27, to show off their new center.

Renovations to the center include the following:
- Redesigned living spaces for animals

- New restrooms for visitors and staff
- Installation of a modern HVAC system
- Comprehensive electrical upgrades
- Plumbing improvements throughout the facility
- New meeting, storage, laundry, locker, and feeding rooms

During the event, Animal Services says they will be holding free pet adoptions all day, with the first 50 adoptions getting a free go-home packet sponsored by Borderland Rescue Fund. They also say there will be merchandise giveaways and fun activities for kids.
