Antioch Animal Services

Antioch Animal Services Antioch Animal Services is dedicated to promoting animal welfare and public awareness. The City of Antioch operates a full service Animal Shelter.

Antioch Animal Services is a bureau of the Antioch Police Department and is responsible for public safety, enforcing local and state laws, as well as caring for the animals in our shelter. Antioch Animal Services is unique in that we only serve Antioch residents and do so 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The cities surrounding Antioch rely on Contra Costa County Animal Services for their animal

related needs. We recognize the responsibility this bureau has to fairly and wisely exercise good judgment when trying to accomplish our mission. We acknowledge that we are held to a higher standard; therefore, our personal and professional lives must be exemplary. We provide care for the lost, homeless and unwanted animals found or surrendered within the City of Antioch. We work closely with local animal welfare organizations to increase the number of animals that are placed into loving homes.

Creepy or cute? Apollo's smile is sparking a heated debate! (Team cute here! 😁) This goofy 10-month-old boy is ready to learn, plays great with dogs, and loves everyone he meets with a bouncy enthusiasm that's simply infectious. He's a total joy. 🥰

We had a small but significant handful of adoptions this week along with some rescue transfers that helped free up some much needed space after over 30 animals came into our shelter in the space of 4 days.😔

We are so thankful to all who walked through our doors to take an animal into their care! 🙏

Congratulations to all pictured: Adopted are the lovely Zora, cute pup Antila, little Phoenix! 🥰

Also, congratulations to Fern (husky), Rocky (bully mix), Farleigh (cat), Lilo (cat), Ariel & Daniel (cats together), Domino (kitten), Pepper (kitten), Salem (kitten), Radar (kitten) & Capella (kitten).

Thank you to all who choose to adopt! ❤️

A big shout out to EBARR - East Bay Animal Rescue & Refuge (1 dog) , K911 Kitty911 (1 dog) & Joybound People & Pets (1 dog, 20 cats/kittens) for transferring pets into their care! It was a HUGE relief to our over population at the shelter! ❤️

We are still overfull!

Gotta be honest, we love the 180s! From scared, hunkered down, whale eyed, lick lipping, hackles up to.....this....she's a doll! 🥰

Margam has done nothing but thrive! That is in a huge part to our team's never ending commitment to give every dog a chance. ❤️

This little Pit/Chi (?) mix is equal parts party girl and cuddle bug. We keep asking what conditioner she is using to keep that coat so shiny, but she isn't telling. 😉 Maybe her new family will have better luck unlocking that secret. Otherwise she has unlocked her joy and zest for life and we cannot get enough of it...

✨️ Come check her out tomorrow when we open at 10am! ✨️

A beautiful sunrise this morning. The dogs were up early getting some walks thanks to dedicated staff & volunteers (some cuuute pics in comments). 🙏

We have so many dogs right now and getting them out for a break from kennel life is important, but more dogs means more cleaning and less time out..... *sigh*

Our volunteers have stepped up and are truly a blessing during these times when our shelter is overwhelmed. We thank you! ❤️

If you are 18 years or older and would be interested in walking our dogs, sign up at;

Our next orientations are Wed, Dec 11th at 7pm and Sat, Dec 14th at 9am.

We love stalkers. 😂 Katrina was tracking this guy on 24petconnect.com from the moment he arrived at our shelter. She saw that Rocket had a name, was neutered and switched to "Adoptable" today and was calling as soon as the phone lines opened this morning. 🥰

Thank you for choosing to adopt! ❤️

🚨SOS🚨 It was a neighborhood effort that took getting this Doberman Mom and her 8 pups into the care of our Animal Control Officers-thank you Almondridge neighbors! Under the cover of darkness, around 3am this morning, a white van was seen in the vicinity of the park possibly associated with the dogs.

If you have any information about where this family came from, please let us know - email [email protected].

*** Please share! We will need help with moving our existing animal population to make room for these dogs. ***

11/19/2024

We have to be honest, October was a tough one for us. Today there are 158 animals waiting in their kennels (our capacity is for 86). What's inevitable is that more will be coming in today. The questions are; "Will an owner come for anyone?", "Will a rescue come to pull some?", "Will adopters come to meet any of the animals?" - if none leave and more come, we have to make some tough choices.

If there is one thing that October taught us, or moreso reaffirmed for us, it's that people are struggling. Our Animal Control Officers have seen a steady rise in neglect cases - animals dying behind closed doors simply due to lack of funds for food, lack of funds for Veterinary care, lack of knowledge about access to free or low cost resources. Those animals are arriving at our shelter, like this cute pup, emaciated.

We as a community have to step up; knowledge is free to share. Concerns should be called in and not discussed on social media. Offers to help should come before judgement. Food donations can be made to pet food pantries such as ours so that we can redistribute to those in need.

We, as a brick and mortar building, can't shoulder it all, our staff doesn't increase when we get more animals, our shelter doesn't magically add on kennel space as needed.....we need your help.

Don't worry Momma, next stop is a quiet foster home to take care of your every need, so that you can comfortably care for your eight babies. 🥰

Thank you to our fabulous foster Jamie for stepping up (again) to take in a Mom & litter, it's a big commitment and we appreciate anyone who steps up to do it! ❤️

We will post updates of these speckled potatoes as they grow and of course updates on their marvelous Momma, Elara. 🌟
