If you have lost a pet, contact the Coronado Animal Care Facility to look for your pet .  Animals wearing an ID or license will often lose the tags. If the Coronado Animal Care Facility does not have your pet, you can fill out a lost or found report or leave a flyer. This is a very important step that should not be missed. We encourage all owners to check the shelter at least every three days while their pet is missing.  Bring a leash with you and any proof of ownership you may have.

 

 

Coronado Animal Services encourages owners to spay and neuter their pets. There is a serious pet overpopulation problem occurring right now in San Diego County causing many unwanted pets to be euthanized (put to sleep) each year. By spaying or neutering your pet before it has offspring you can be a part of the solution to this problem. Call your veterinarian today or call us for a referral to a local veterinarian participating in a low-cost program.

 

Spaying or neutering is good for your pet. Altering your animal reduces the incidence of a number of health problems that can be difficult or expensive to treat and lets him/her live a longer, healthier life.  In addition, spaying or neutering your pet makes him/her a better, more affectionate companion. Unsterilized animals often exhibit more behavior and temperament problems (such as running away, displaying nervous behavior, or incessant crying) than those pets who have been spayed or neutered.  Check with your local veterinatian for spay and neutering services.
