Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.

Do not always take back an animal they have adopted out. They may have improved, under pressure. Cant speak to their changes as of today 8/2019

The animals they take in are often already spayed/neutered by the County Animal Care and Control. For some they may have their own Vet or another Spay neuter organization, do it.

Hi, I found two dogs in my neighborhood that word dumped by their previous owner. I did not see it but I can tell that they were dumped because every time I made an attempt to catch them and made a little bit of progress they would regress back to the exact same spot. I was however after many attempts able to lower them in to my backyard. They are very nice dogs but apprehensive towards humans, which I think will fade with time and trust. If anyone is interested in homing these dogs I will be glad to give you my location for pick up. I already have six dogs myself so keeping them is not an option for me. Again they are very nice dogs and just need a loving home. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello! I have found a box of about 6 cats on the side of the road. They all seem to be female. 2 of them seem to be somewhat socialized but the others are really skittish. We got them to our house but we can't keep them because they don't get along with our cats that we already have and we don't have enough room/food to keep all of them. I just couldn't leave them on the streets. Can anyone help?
HI, my building was sold this week and I have been given to May 1, to vacate my apartment. I have two cats and do not want to give them up. I am afraid I won't be able to find a place to live that will allow them. I am going to do my best to keep them or find a good home for them. Just wondering how others have handled this type of situation.
Thank you, Sharon
