From Yolo County Animal Services

La misión de Servicios para Animales del Condado de Yolo es brindar servicios humanitarios de cuidado y control animal al Condado de Yolo, incluyendo las cuatro ciudades incorporadas y la Universidad de California en Davis. La operación del refugio y los servicios de campo, así como el trabajo de su personal, se centran en los numerosos animales no deseados, abandonados o maltratados de nuestra comunidad. Defenderlos contribuye a la seguridad de la comunidad y ofrece una segunda oportunidad para que los animales que de otro modo habrían sido sacrificados tengan una segunda oportunidad. Nuestro objetivo es brindar educación y programas que promuevan la esterilización y castración, y el bienestar animal.

Adopt a pet

When you adopt a homeless dog or cat you’re saving the life of a loving and loyal animal. You’re also making space for other pets to find families of their own.
