Calaveras County Animal Services’ main responsibility is, via licensing, ensuring all dogs have current vaccinations to help prevent the spread of rabies. They also strongly encourage spaying and neutering to prevent pet overpopulation.
Calaveras County Animal Services strives to find forever homes for the animals brought into the shelter, and works closely with several shelters and rescues to transfer some of their critters to other locations so they can find a forever home there. They also offer microchipping and all animals adopted from them leave with a registered microchip.
