REHOMING OR SURRENDERING YOUR PET
When all else has been considered and you believe that surrendering your animal is the best option for you and your pet, there are some options, depending on its age and size, breed, health and behavior. It is not possible to list all the options, but we have named a few most used in Stanislaus. Some rescues and shelters willingly accept any dog or cat surrendered. However, public shelters have limited space and will humanely euthanize if they run out of space or the animal is deemed unadoptable. Please search on line for the many rescues locally and regionally; some are all breed and some are dedicated to one breed.
