Find a lost dog, foster for five days, and help them get back home.
We are proud to be the only open-admission shelter in the City of St. Louis, maintaining an impressive life-saving rate of 98%. This achievement represents one of the most challenging aspects of our work. Despite partnering with a network of like-minded rescue organizations, we continue to face a record number of lost animals entering our shelter. Because of this constant influx, we are unable to accept animals brought in by the public. With zero available space, we must prioritize taking in animals brought to us daily by Animal Control Officers.
Albergamos muchos animales en el refugio y recibimos nuevos animales todos los días.
Incluso si no ve exactamente lo que está buscando en nuestro sitio web, ¡su mejor amigo perfecto podría estar esperándolo en el refugio!

We ask you to take the following steps if you find a lost pet:
-
Keep the dog for at least 48 hours.
-
Visit the nearest veterinary clinic to have the dog or cat scanned for a microchip.
-
Hang signs near the location where you found the pet.
-
Share the pet’s information and photo on Facebook lost pet groups, Nextdoor, and other neighborhood pages.
If you are willing to foster the pet for us, we can add them to our system and provide all the necessary supplies and support.

Pets are more likely to be reunited with their owner when kept close by.
