East County Animal Shelter

At East Bay Animal Rescue & Refuge (EBARR), our goal is to lessen animal mistreatment and stop more animals from winding up in shelters. We never discriminate against breed or size since we believe in the health and wellbeing of all animals.

Since 1874, the East Bay SPCA has provided aid to missing, injured, and abandoned animals! We provide services in Dublin and Oakland for the counties of Alameda and Contra Costa.

The foundation of the Safe Cat Foundation is the belief that all cats should be saved. We don't choose which cats to take out of shelters based on "standards" or "criteria." Not because they are young or cute, but because we believe cats should survive, we pull them.

The Hayward Animal Shelter accepts stray dogs and schedules appointments for animals that have been owner-rendered in the Hayward City. We frequently have dogs, cats, and rabbits up for adoption, as well as other small animals on occasion. Please stop by the shelter in person to fill out a lost pet report if you are looking for an animal.

The Tri-City Animal Shelter, which houses animals from Fremont, Union City, and Newark, is run by the Animal Services Unit of the Fremont Police Department. Animal Services Officers in Union City and Newark respond to complaints about animals in their respective cities.

A nonprofit dedicated to saving animals in Northern California, WOOF Animal Rescue is 100% volunteer-run. WOOF has successfully placed many dogs in great forever homes after rescuing them from high-kill shelters with the aid of our volunteers.
