Keeping People and Pets Together

Get Your Dog Licence Online!
A dog licence is your best insurance for the safe and quick return of your family member. It also makes your dog instantly identifiable to anyone who may come across your pet and helps avoid the daily boarding charge. Best of all, a lost licensed dog will likely be at the shelter for just hours, not days. Learn more.
Small is Beautiful!
Our rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, birds and hamsters may be small, but the love they provide is big! We have an abundance of smaller animals, especially rabbits, who are looking for their forever families. Click here to find your ideal companion.
Before Surrendering Your Pet
The decision to give up a companion animal is a difficult one. Before making the decision to give up your pet, review our Pet Resource Guide on the options available. Learn more here.
