Relinquishing a Pet
|
The San Diego Humane Society provides a relinquishment service to the public for pet owners who are unable to keep their pets.
The San Diego Humane Society, Gaines St. Campus and the County of San Diego Department of Animal Services (DAS) are co-located on the San Diego Campus for Animal Care and work together to find the best home for animals through their Joint Intake Policy.
*Please note: Stray animals are required by law to go to DAS so that their owners may claim them.
To inquire about relinquishing your pet at our North Campus, please call customer service directly at (760) 757-4357.
