This was the best, most organized and personally friendly shelter we’ve ever been to. Victoria, Annie, Jesse, and Rick were all so professional as things went so smooth and prompt. We will definitely go to this shelter again in the future if we should choose to adopt another dog. We adopted Gimli on September 13 and she’s been such a great sister to our other Chihuahua Bentley. Thank you guys all very, very much❣️ Diane & Patrick from Monte Sereno, Ca

Thank you for the kind support and help. Sorry if i dont remember the Ms. name who receive me in the front desk, she and the doctor were so gentile with us during this extremely difficult moment. Our Nina is resting in peace now. Thanks again from the bottom of our hearts. Bless you all.

I volunteer here 2 times a week because I appreciate the values and goals of The SCCAS. They really make the greatest efforts to treat each animal with kindness and respect; the staff is so knowledgeable and helpful and that really helps it feel like a safe and welcoming place. I enjoy every moment of my time volunteering with the dogs here and I am so grateful to be able to give the dogs all kinds of love! It's helpful for the shelter and it's extremely therapeutic for me! The shelter is open Monday through Sunday: 11am-6pm, only closed on major holidays.

What do you do when your neighbor brings your dog to doggie jail? You thank them.

Why isn't anyone talking about how expensive it is to get your animal back out of the shelter. I had an experience a couple years ago and many people have had this experience and isn't speaking up about it. But I had a husky that was there that was brought in by an angry neighbor making poor decisions and the second I came there they were super rude to me and disrespectful and to this day I am traumatized by it. But they refused to give my dog back to me after showing them records of my dog and pictures and they still said it wasn't enough proof. And after a couple of days went past just before I was going to get her they sold her it's very disrespectful and a disgrace of how they treat there animals. And they kill animals on a daily basis if the animal don't follow by there rules or any kind of resistance 😡😡this place is a disgrace and shouldn't be in business.

I got the love of my entire heart and life here. Photos attached. She's very small for her age and only weighed 7 lbs, She was not particularly fond of other cats and had regressed a bit at the shelter, likely because of people's prejudice about her coating and her fear kept her from being adopted. It was rough at first, she's my first ever cat family member, but I absolutely love her. She's very happy now, she has a cat tree, windows to watch birds, squirrels and deer from, she has 4 human servants and fancy AF food. She tells me what she wants and she gives so much affection.
