Animal Services

 NOTICE:

In an effort to limit the exposure of COVID-19 to our staff, volunteers and the public, Edmond Animal Services has made the following changes to the Animal Shelter operating procedures until further notice:

  • The shelter is open to the public, MASKS ARE REQUIRED.
  • We are accepting surrendered pets on a case-by-case basis until our shelter is full.
  • The shelter will not be accepting stray animals over the counter at the shelter. Residents are encouraged not to detain or collect stray or found animals unless they are willing to care for the animal until an owner is located.
  • Residents who identify a stray animal that remains at large or appears dangerous, sick or injured can report the location of the animal by calling the shelter and an Animal Services Officer will respond to the area.
The Edmond Animal Services Unit is a component of the Edmond Police Department’s Special Services Division.
The Animal Services Unit is responsible for responding to calls for service within the community for issues involving animals –
both wild and domestic.
