Rehoming Resources

Surrendering Your Pet

We understand the decision to surrender your pet does not come easily. We may be able to assist you with the rehoming process, depending on available space and the animal's temperament and health. We are unable to accept feral cats and kittens.

If you are looking to surrender your pet to MCAS, please email the shelter with your name, phone number, and city you reside in as well as the pet's name, breed, age, if it is good with dogs/cats/children, and the reason for surrendering the pet. One of our staff members will respond to you in the order we receive requests.

Rescue Resources

We encourage you to contact local rescues, as well, if you need to rehome your pet. You can find our most updated list of rescue groups here.

You can also list your pet online with Rehome by Adopt a Pet.

FAQs

  • Does my dog have to wear his/her license tag? ‐
    First of all, it is the law. Also, wearing the license tag is the quickest way for your dog to be returned to you if he/she becomes lost.
  • Do you accept credit/debit cards as payment? ‐
    Yes, the Miami County Animal Shelter accepts credit/debit cards (there is a 2.7% processing fee for credit/debit cards), cash, and checks with photo identification. No starter checks, please.
  • How soon are dogs available for adoption after they arrive at the animal shelter? ‐
    Dogs wearing current license tags must be held for 14 days. Dogs without license tags must be held 3 business days. After that time period the dog may be available for adoption and they are kept for as long as it takes and we have room.
