Animal Investigation and Response

Animal Investigation and Response is a 501(c)(3) animal protection organization that assists law enforcement, animal control agencies and communities with animal abuse related issues such as puppy mills and animal hoarding as well as disaster relief. Based in Texas, Animal Investigation and Response was formed by two certified animal cruelty investigators who saw a need to help connect agencies with strategies and resources to investigate, as well as provide aid for situations that exceed the scope of a community’s reach.

OUR MISSION

Animal Investigation and Response's mission is to connect law enforcement, animal control and communities with strategies and resources to assist with large scale cases of animal abuse. It is also our mission to provide skilled and certified resources for disaster Response needs. 

WHAT WE DO

Law Enforcement

AIR works with Law Enforcement  and Animal Control to assist communities with limited resources to pursue animal cruelty and neglect cases. AIR helps communities understand the current animal welfare laws, assists law enforcement in building cases against abusers, provides volunteers to staff and run emergency sheltering while animals are in custody and works with placement partners to get the animals into safe, reputable rescue organizations. Our services are at no cost to the requesting agency.

Disaster Relief

AIR provides communities with resources, manpower and equipment to staff an emergency shelter.  AIR can also provide veterinary support and networking assistance for displaced animals in the community to reunite individuals with their lost animals. Our services are at no cost to the requesting agency.
