Surrender

We understand how incredibly difficult the decision is to surrender a loved pet. We are here to help you and your pet through this transition. Please find comfort in knowing that we believe in the best outcome for every animal that comes into our care, and your pet will be provided with quality care by trained, profession staff. Our team will work towards that as quickly as possible so that your friend is not in the shelter any longer than necessary. 

Please know that surrenders are accepted on a case by case basis and that there may be a wait list. Although we aim to help as many animals as we are able to, there is no guarantee that we will be able to accept your pet into our surrender program. 

In order for us to learn more about your pet, we ask that you complete and submit a surrender form. If you require a paper form or support with filling our online version, please call our shelter directly at 519-756-6620.
