We are thrilled to announce a new guest speaker at our third annual American Pets Alive No Kill Conference, which is taking place in Austin February 23-25, 2013. Sgt. Karl Bailey from the City of Seagoville, Texas will be joining us to talk about how he with a small staff and dedicated volunteers, changed a high kill city shelter to No Kill in just 120 seconds and with a budget of only $30,000 a year.
Sgt. Bailey has been a police officer for 23 years. In 2011, the City of Seagoville decided to move management of Animal Services from Code Enforcement to the Police Department and assigned Sgt. Bailey to manage the division. With no experience in shelter management, he took the animal shelter from killing over 50 animals per month to over 97% live release rate the first year!
