In 1981, Brazos Animal Shelter was incorporated as a non-profit 501(c)3 organization. The facility opened at 2207 Finfeather Road, Bryan in 1983. Brazos Animal Shelter accepted animals from the City of College Station, City of Bryan, Brazos County and surrounding counties. On July 1, 2011, we opened our doors to the new location at 5359 Leonard Road accepting stray animals from the City of College Station and areas served by the Brazos County Sheriff’s department. The contract with the City of Bryan ended on August 31, 2011. All animals found within the City limits of Bryan are now taken to the Bryan Animal Center on Finfeather Road. In the Fall of 2012, we changed the name to Aggieland Humane Society as a representation of the spirit of our region!
