Low Kennel Capacity
Our shelter is facing critically low capacity, with kennels reserved for stray, injured, and sick pets. If you can no longer care for your pet, please consider other rehoming options to prevent the likelihood of their euthanasia at ACS.
If you need to surrender your pet due to behavioral challenges, please contact us.
NOTE: If you are looking for a new home for your pet because of behavioral issues, visit our Pet Care Tips page for helpful tips on how to train your pet.
If we reached capacity or unable to provide humane housing, you may be asked to seek alternate arrangements. We encourage you to exhaust all other means of finding a new home for your unwanted pets:
Fees
- Fee per pet: $25
- Fee per litter: $25
Advisory Note
All surrendered pets become property of the City of San Antonio immediately upon impoundment. Owner surrendered animals could be:
- adopted
- transferred to a rescue group
- humanely euthanized
