If You Lose Your Pet
- If you find yourself separated from your pet, you may file a lost report with Animal Services.
- Please do not call Animal Services to try and identify your pet over the telephone.
- Due to the number and various breeds of animals housed at the shelter, we will not be able to tell you if your pet is at our facility.
- Come to the animal shelter, located at 2150 Shuttle Drive in Atwater, to look for your missing pet.
