Adoptions are now by appointment
SEAL BEACH ANIMAL CARE
The Seal Beach Animal Care Center is now open for adoptions by appointment for approved applicants.
The Care Center is located at 1700 Adolfo Lopez Drive, Seal Beach; (562) 430-4993. It will impound stray cats or dogs found in Seal Beach by Seal Beach residents with proof of Seal Beach residency.
The non-profit, no-kill animal shelter is committed to finding permanent, loving homes for all the animals that come into its care.
And that includes the many senior dogs now up for adoption. They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but you don’t have to. Old dogs have already paid their dues, done their time, gained their wisdom. When you have an older dog, you find yourself surrounded by a sweet old soul who wants nothing more than to lie at your feet and watch you make dinner or take a slow walk down the street.
There are many older dogs that are just waiting for someone to give them the one thing they no longer have, a loving home. If you are in a position to bring a senior pet into your home, consider visiting the center. You’ll need to make an appointment to get the process started.
Meanwhile a staff of dedicated volunteers ensures the animals are kept as comfortable as possible until they can be placed into new adoptive homes. The Friends of the Seal Beach Animal Care Center was established in 1986, and the shelter was open for business in July 1988.
In Leisure World, all pets must be registered at the Stock Transfer Office; pet ownership rules are outlined in GRF policy 50-1023-1, which can be accessed at lwsb.com, Governing Documents.
