‼️LA Animal Services has shockingly sent a letter to foster families demanding that they either adopt their foster dog or return that dog to the shelter by June 9‼️
Let that sink in.
This is happening just weeks before the Fourth of July, when we all know shelters experience a huge influx of lost and displaced animals. Instead of supporting foster homes by checking on the dog, actively showcasing their animals and helping them find adopters, LA Animal Services is creating a situation that will force more animals back into already strained shelters.
If you are fostering a dog through LA Animal Services, please do not bring that dog back to the shelter right now. For many of these animals, foster homes are the difference between life and death.
A new General Manager begins on Monday. Let's hope this dangerous and irresponsible decision is immediately reversed.
Shame on you, Mayor Bass and LA Animal Services.
