Elk Grove Animal Shelter

A single stray black cat was discovered by two sisters in 2003, leading to the founding of SAS, a no-kill sanctuary. Freeway was the name of the animal we cared for for 13 years; sadly, she passed away in 2016.

To help people and their pets live more loving and compassionate lives by lending a helping hand, building enduring relationships, and saving lives.

Our goal is to maintain the health and wellbeing of animals in our local communities and to ensure public safety through compassion, responsibility, and education.

Happy Tails respects every cat and dog's life by offering loving care and cage-free shelter to stray animals and working to put an end to overpopulation and abuse.

NorCal, a Sacramento-based organization that serves the greater Northern California region, partners with public shelters to find loving, permanent homes for Cocker Spaniels and Spaniel mixes that are in need of adoption. NorCal also acts as a resource for information on the special requirements of the Cocker Spaniel breed.

Through emergency housing, disaster relief services, financial help, and education, it is our objective to save animals from dire situations and to develop the relationship between humans and animals.
