Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA
Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA, a private non-profit guided by the humane ethic, builds healthy relationships between people and animals. As an ethical choice, they accept all animals in need of care and often provide a second chance to the neediest animals: those who would otherwise be turned away at so-called “no kill” agencies that accept only highly adoptable animals. They also serve as our County’s provider of animal rescue and control services and, as such, have no control over the number of incoming animals. Their records are outstanding. Since 2003, they have adopted 100% of healthy, adoptable dogs and cats.
