Animal Services
Adoptions
Are you looking for your next best friend? Look no further, Ginger is the right pup for you!
She is just about two years old; crate trained and knows basic commands. Ginger is an amazing dog, she is great with kids, extremely happy, and calm! She has been in our care since November and cannot wait to find her 'furever' family.
For more information about Ginger or any of the other great animals in our care call (760) 955-5089.
Seeking Volunteer Fosters
We are seeking volunteers interested in providing short- or long-term fostering for the animals in our care. Fostering a pet encourages positive behaviors and provides the animal with socialization, which in turn makes them more adoptable! If you are unable to adopt but would like to give one of these incredible animals a loving home even for just a weekend, please contact our Animal Services Team.
For more information, vv.city/animalcare or call (760) 955-5089.
