The San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter posts its intake and outcome numbers as well as the amount of dogs currently housed in popup shelters daily on Instagram. On March 26, the shelter posted that the intake of animals was 18 while three left the shelter, and 37 dogs are housed in popup crates. These numbers are similar to what occurs on a daily basis.
