 As of May
1st, Louisville Metro Animal Services will accept the surrendering of pets by
appointment only. It is a proactive approach to saving animals’ lives. LMAS is not
changing what it takes, just when.
Any animal determined by LMAS to be stray, sick, injured or
aggressive will be accepted immediately, without an appointment.
Under the new process, owners wanting to surrender their pets will
first fill-out and submit a Pet History Form and submit to the LMAS Animal Care Center (3705 Manslick Rd.) or
online at www.louisvilleky.gov/animalservices.
A staff member will contact the pet owner within two
business days to set an appointment. Owners who surrender their pets will be
charged a $25 impoundment fee to help cover the cost of care for their pet.
For more information call
(502) 473-PETS, stop by the LMAS Animal House Adoption Center at 3516
Newburg Rd. or call (502) 473-PETS. www.louisvilleky.gov/animalservices
