What if I need to have my animal humanely euthanized?

Animal Care and Enforcement does provide free of charge, humane euthanasia for animals at the end of their life. However, the decision to euthanize any animal is at the discretion of the Veterinary team at the Animal Shelter. Animals not exhibiting life threatening conditions, and without documentation from a veterinarian, may be denied euthanasia. Owner surrender may still be an option for the animal owner. Though an appointment is not required, scheduling an appointment will decrease the incident of a long wait time during this difficult time. We offer humane euthanasia services Monday through Friday from 11 am until 4 pm.
