I've been in their office several times. Several of the staff members were very nice. I stopped by on Friday (5/13/22) to inquire about fostering kittens. The first lady I spoke with was extremely nice. However, the blond older woman behind the counter was incredibly rude. She basically called me a liar because their computer entries had my cat listed under two names. I'm reasonably sure that most people rename their pets when they adopt them. I've adopted two cats in my adult life. One male and one female on the same day a couple years ago at the El Dorado County Animal control. I know exactly how many pets I own and care for daily. I also know their names. Your computer entry error does not give you permission to mistreat the public. Its unfortunate that their staff member is allowed to behave like that.

Had a very unpleasant experience here today. I went in to report that we found a dog. We have been taking care of it and desperately looking for it's owner. I was talking to the very nice gal at the front counter filling out paperwork. Then as we were talking, another woman just showed up from a room behind the counter. Started talking to me like I did something wrong. Very very rude. She really was talking to me like she was already mad at me. Never seen her in my life. I was there to do right by the dog. I have her name and title and will be making a formal complaint. I hope that she is not an example of who the folks at the shelter are. I do not think so.

I was desperately looking for my 22+ year old cat that had gone missing & we knew it was near her end of life. I was notified that Animal Control had her & to come immediately. I was able to come in, see her sweet soul & be with her before she passed away. I am so incredibly thankful for this opportunity to be able to say goodbye to her. Thank you so much El Dorado County Animal Control & all that you do. Your staff was all so compassionate & understanding. Outside of this, the facility is awesome. They do tons of yard time with the dogs, the adoption areas are great to get to know you new future fur babies. Staff is so nice ! If you are looking for a new best friend I would definitely go here to give a fur babie a 2nd chance at love!

I adopted my dog Wylie-Bear from here as a Nine month old puppy! He was given to me clean, free of fleas and ticks as well as being very healthy! All animals are chipped and licensed before they are available for adoption along with all necessary shots/ vaccinations. The shelter is large with large kennel holding areas and an EXCELLENT ADDITION of outside play areas completely fenced in for a dogs every dream; to run untethered chasing balls of chewing squeaky toys! Wylie is a German Shepard Akita mix and now a Professionally trained and Registered Service Animal for my PTST! Sincerely, Barth “Ski” Gutowsky (Lewis Laughing Bear) Hangtown Ca.

How much to adopt a dog

Sydney Faurot | Mar 2, 2022
Gretchen Schneider | Mar 2, 2022

Cost will vary. There's the adoption fee and a licensing fee. Some dogs are sponsored and costs are reduced. It's best to inquire about a specific dog that interests you.

How much do the dogs cost

Janene Craig | Nov 2, 2021
William Chickering | Nov 2, 2021

The fee is low. A dog can be a priceless faithful friend. The fee at Animal Services covers the cost of care while the dog is there.

I need to have several cats fixed and was told you have coupons that help reduce the cost for the procedure. Also I was wondering if there was any one out there that can help trap feral cats?

Animal Services has traps you can "rent". We recently used one and it was easy to operate and cruelty free

I have three adorable kittens that are in desperate need of a loving home that will take good care of them. Please let me know if you or anyone you know is interested

John Smythe III | Aug 29, 2020

Call them in the AM. They're very nice there.

Who should I call to report an injured deer on the road?

Lynda Hirschbein | Aug 29, 2020
Ashley Slaton | Aug 29, 2020

If it's injured yes then call El Dorado County animal services. But if it's dead then you would need to call Cal Trans. And they would get DOT to come out and pick it up.

I have a dead fawn on my property. It appears to have been dead for about a week. We just got home from a vacation and found it this morning. What can be done?

David Foster | Aug 30, 2019
Ashley Slaton | Aug 30, 2019

You would need to call DOT, if it's on a roadway of some sort of your property. Or maybe animal control can help you.

I keep driving by a property with horses being kept in small areas without grass or shade. I have been seeing the horses morning, noon, and night in the same pins. These are unacceptable conditions where I'm from. Is this how California rolls?

Stephen George | Aug 30, 2019
Ashley Slaton | Aug 30, 2019

Not usually, but it'll take someone who cares to make it be changed. We're pretty big on animal welfare. If they are kept there during the winter months like that out in the open, they will get sick and could possibly pass away. If they don't get heat stoke by then.

Where to get dog license

Sharon Van Deventer | Aug 30, 2019
Eric Stephens | Aug 30, 2019

You can get one by going into animal services, by going online to the web site, or by purchasing one from you vet. Most vet offices in El Dorado County sell licenses. You will need to provide proof of a current rabies vaccination.

Nikki E | Aug 30, 2018

I didn't take any. I am just learning about this phone app feature. Sorry. EDC Animal Control is always clean and has well cared for animals in need of adoptions. I will foster or adopt or once a long haired Chihuahua/Yorkie female comes available.

Where can you borrow small animal traps ?
