Sgt. Bailey, you have restored my faith in humanity. What an incredible human being. Thank you for your love for the animals and all you have done and are doing for them. May God bless you and all you are doing...

And of course all the wonderful volunteers that Seagoville have. BLESS YOU ALL.

How wonderful. A policeman with a heart! You are an inspiration. God bless you.

Angels of Light Shine on you all Thank you for careing

Thank you Sgt. Bailey! This world needs more people like you!

thank God for this man and the volunteers

You 'moved me' Sgt. Karl Baily. Thank you for caring and inspiring others to do the same.

Sgt. Karl Bailey is my hero, too. His volunteers are heroes as well. Yes, impressive. This shows with determination and dedication no kill can be done. This is The Little Shelter That Could..and Did. Tucson AZ

Thank you for your compassion. Showing us how one person can make a difference in the lives of these animals is breath taking. Of course, a huge thank you for all your volunteers, without them this could not happen.

Thank you Officer, for your kind heart to the animals in need.. You and the volunteers do an awesome job.. Big hugs and Thanks to all of you........:)

The chief sure picked the right man for the job !! The world is a better place because of Sgt. Bailey !! Good bless you n all your volunteers!!

What a beautiful soul!

This is just amazing and needs to be sent to all of the other shelters! Thank you for caring so much.

The name of their facebook page is Seagoville Animal Shelter. Like it and support the wonderful work that Sgt Bailey and his volunteers do for the animals that enter the shelter.

we need more people like him.

Thank You for setting a fine example by making it a no kill shelter. You are a voice for the voiceless. I hope others get determined to learn about animals as you did and step up and follow your example. God Bless You for what you are doing for his creations.

Fabulous this is what we need everywhere in every pound.

Thank you and God bless you Sgt. Bailey you are a great man.

I firmly believe that if you put compassionate people in the management positions of the shelter that they will move hell and high water to save the animals that come into the shelter. You are an inspiration to all of us who network the shelter animals that even the city shelter can become No Kill!! Congratulations on being a No Kill shelter!

Sgt. Bailey - I SALUTE YOU!!!! Thank you.

What a guy! If these folks can make their shelter no-kill, then other shelters can do the same thing! God Bless Sgt. Bailey and his volunteers! Judy in WY

Great job! So glad to see there are people out there who do care!!!Nice job Texas!!!

Sgt. Bailey, thank you for making such a difference. What you've done is truly great to see. I hope it can become a model for other kill shelters around the country.

You did one hell of a job thank you Sgt.

i love you all for this wonderful job you all do!!!!!

I work in dog rescue/adoption in the DFW area. Thank you Sgt. Bailey! Daniel in Hurst.

May the Lord Bless you richly! Thank You for saving them!'

Absolutely wonderful! This video just made my day! Brought tears to my eyes that there are still good people left in this world. I know of a shelter that is trying to become a "No Kill" shelter. I'm passing this video on to them. Maybe you could help them as well. Great job!

Many Blessings to you sir.........May God Bless and prosper everything you do!!!

God Bless u all!!

I just came across this link in Facebook. What an amazing story! Thank you Sgt Bailey and all the staff and volunteers at the shelter! You have truly made a difference in so many lives.

What a Man...........

it is so nice to learn that people can make a difference. i wish we could get rid of all the kill shelters and make them no kill. keep up the great work you do.

Great story! Wonderful outcome for the pets! That's the way to go, for sure.

Thank You... and God Bless

Thank you for de job done and for the inspiration you are for all of us!

You Sir, Are an amazing individual. I have known for years this was possible but have been told I am wrong. Thank you for caring and going the extra mile to study the problems and learn how to overcome them to save those who cannot fend for themselves!

God bless you

He rocks! All it takes is a little love.

Awesome of u!! god bless ya'll

Awesome guy & shelter!

We are fortunate to have a brand new, beautiful facility! We, also, dream of being "no kill" someday. Volunteers are instrumental in making it happen.

Thank you for saving so many lives and hopefully inspiring others with the compassion and respect you give to our most vulnerable members of our community. I know shelters where the animals are living in poor conditions and where animals are euthanized regularly due to limited space. The shelters do not allow volunteers claiming that the liability insurance is really high and they fear any legal issues; due to lack of volunteers, animals aren't given the care (socialization for many that are scared) and love they thrive on, not to mention the adoption help they would get from dedicated volunteers. Please share how you were able to accomplish allowing volunteers. Thanks again.

Lovely man...

Way to go Seagoville Police officers!! Way to go!!!!

Thank you so much Mr,Bailey!

There are very few men like Karl Bailey... I am impressed and in love!!! Fantastic!!!

you are my new hero!!!!!!

We need someone with his heart and passion to run Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control in Florida

AWESOME PAWSOME

Thank you for what you're doing!

now here is a smart man he know what he wanted and he put it in place why can't others do the same

I wondered that too.

thank god for such a man!

Hero!

Fantastic video. Smart and well planned out all the way around. I shared this on Facebook to help inspire others to be pro life in the animal shelter community.

Dawg damn it! He is a SAINT!!!

I'm in love!!!!!

Great job, sir!

God bless u

No excuses. None!

Fantastic! The perfect man for the job! :)

These ( Sgt Bailey and the volunteers) are what children should be taught to look up to, not sports figures, movie stars or rap singers. Not only did he save lives, but he is a positive image for the police.

You were pro-active. You did great and hope your actions are followed by other shelters. Kudos to you.

Awesome job!! Thank you :)♥

The animals are so lucky there.

I love you

I bought instruction from ShepherdSurvives and I learned about it very very cheap.

How is this shelter now?

WISH WE COULD CLONE HIM!!!

How many animals do you receive daily or per year?

We receive around 850 per year. It fluctuates.

This is how to doit!!! Why can't more facilities be run this way??? They'd gain volunteers who would have more enthusiasm due to no kill ethics.

:)

why can´t I like it ?

Multiple likes

I am in animal rescue thank you I did not like police officers but I love you shelters kill animals every day and don't give a damn its sad any love you are a sweet heart

What a great guy. I bet the criminals in the area are sad to see him go. He's probably the only one that shows them a little compassion. But then again, maybe they're all compassionate there. Birds of a feather.... I hope he's vegan or turns vegan. It's the obvious next step.

after all the videos that pop up showing cops killing dogs and cats and such, its nice to see some good news for a change.

What happens when they are full? Where does the animal go then? To a kill shelter? In the spring time and summer time, cats and dogs have lots of babies due to irresponsible pet owners not sterilizing their pets. Shelters become full fast and no kills shelters simply can't take more in, in return these animals are dropped off somewhere or sent to a "kill shelter"

The cities where most animals are killed are cities where the pet store sales soar above the adoption rate. Shelters are not competing with the pet stores, and often are not open during hours where the working public can get to them. They can organize foster facilities, and low cost spay and neuter facilities. It is all part of something called the "no kill equation". Google that. Check out the book Redemption...or look up Nathan Winograd online.

+Jay Malone I. Feral Cat TNR Program Many communities throughout the United States are embracing Trap, Neuter, Release programs (TNR) to improve animal welfare, reduce death rates, and meet obligations to public welfare. II. High-Volume, Low-Cost Spay/Neuter Low cost, high volume spay/neuter will quickly lead to fewer animals entering the shelter system, allowing more resources to be allocated toward saving lives. III. Rescue Groups An adoption or transfer to a rescue group frees up scarce cage and kennel space, reduces expenses for feeding, cleaning, killing, and improves a community’s rate of lifesaving. In an environment of millions of dogs and cats killed in shelters annually, rare is the circumstance in which a rescue group should be denied an animal. IV. Foster Care Volunteer foster care is crucial to No Kill. Without it, saving lives is compromised. It is a low cost, and often no cost, way of increasing a shelter’s capacity, improving public relations, increasing a shelter’s public image, rehabilitating sick and injured or behaviorally challenged animals, and saving lives. V. Comprehensive Adoption Programs Adoptions are vital to an agency’s lifesaving mission. The quantity and quality of shelter adoptions is in shelter management’s hands, making lifesaving a direct function of shelter policies and practice. In fact, studies show people get their animals from shelters only 20% of the time. If shelters better promoted their animals and had adoption programs responsive to the needs of the community, including public access hours for working people, offsite adoptions, adoption incentives, and effective marketing, they could increase the number of homes available and replace killing with adoptions. Contrary to conventional wisdom, shelters can adopt their way out of killing. VI. Pet Retention While some of the reasons animals are surrendered to shelters are unavoidable, others can be prevented-but only if shelters are willing to work with people to help them solve their problems. Saving animals requires communities to develop innovative strategies for keeping people and their companion animals together. And the more a community sees its shelters as a place to turn for advice and assistance, the easier this job will be. VII. Medical and Behavior Programs In order to meet its commitment to a lifesaving guarantee for all savable animals, shelters need to keep animals happy and healthy and keep animals moving through the system. To do this, shelters must put in place comprehensive vaccination, handling, cleaning, socialization, and care policies before animals get sick and rehabilitative efforts for those who come in sick, injured, unweaned, or traumatized. VIII. Public Relations/Community Involvement Increasing adoptions, maximizing donations, recruiting volunteers and partnering with community agencies comes down to one thing: increasing the shelter’s exposure. And that means consistent marketing and public relations. Public relations and marketing are the foundation of all a shelter’s activities and their success. To do all these things well, the shelter must be in the public eye. IX. Volunteers Volunteers are a dedicated “army of compassion” and the backbone of a successful No Kill effort. There is never enough staff, never enough dollars to hire more staff, and always more needs than paid human resources. That is where volunteers come in and make the difference between success and failure and, for the animals, life and death. X. Proactive Redemptions One of the most overlooked areas for reducing killing in animal control shelters are lost animal reclaims. Sadly, besides having pet owners fill out a lost pet report, very little effort is made in this area of shelter operations. This is unfortunate because doing so-primarily shifting from passive to a more proactive approach-has proven to have a significant impact on lifesaving and allow shelters to return a large percentage of lost animals to their families. XI. A Compassionate Director The final element of the No Kill equation is the most important of all, without which all other elements are thwarted-a hard working, compassionate animal control or shelter director not content to regurgitate tired clichés or hide behind the myth of “too many animals, not enough homes.” Unfortunately, this one is also oftentimes the hardest one to demand and find.

It's sad we can't find more people to volunteer to foster to adopt here. We have a TNR program here but you can release so many until it becomes a problem. Cats being ran over and or being shot due to the community many bird sanctuary. Even people are arrested for entering these areas. Cats are trapped and ACO is called. Chips are tracked back to these programs with a warning on allowing of over overpopulation.

There are terrific expert resources to help you from people and groups who've achieved success. I suggest www.maddiesfund.org/topic-staff-and-volunteers-volunteers.htm#. You also need excellent, educated, compassionate leadership. This applies to any animal organization working to save lives, not just shelters - www.nokilllearning.net/leadership - If you have one or members of your group able to take some or all of the courses available from The Humane Network, they are very worthwhile - See the Certificate Program for courses - humanenetwork.org/resources/ - Hope this helps!

is he married?
