All San Diego Humane Society campuses (including San Diego, El Cajon, Escondido and Oceanside locations) have temporarily paused the intake of owner-surrender dogs until April 4, 2024, except in emergencies that threaten the health of the pet. We are also requesting that all relinquishments of other species be made by appointment only.
With our campuses over capacity, we are asking our community to help reduce the number of animals entering our shelters. Finders of lost pets are strongly encouraged to participate in our Wait 48 or StrayCare programs, which allow community members to care for stray animals in their homes while effforts are made to find their owner.
We understand this is a challenging situation and are here to help. We offer a wide range of tools and resources that can help you hold on to your pet in the meantime, or help you rehome them directly to an adopter. Please browse our available resources and contact us to let us know how we can help.
Thank you for your understanding.
