Our Story
This is the official page of the County of Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control - Carson Animal Care Center, set up and run by the hardworking volunteers! The Carson ACC provides animal control and rescue services 24 hours a day / 7 days a week in our service area. We offer a wide variety of potential animals for adoption. Most of our animals are strays or pets that have been surrendered by their prior owners for various reasons.
The many benefits of adopting a pet from Carson Animal Care Center include: low-cost spay and neuter, free veterinary health check, low-cost vaccinations, and a microchip ID.
In addition to patrolling streets, back roads, beaches, canyons and mountains for lost, injured and abandoned animals, our office also sells dog licenses, conducts humane investigations, protects the community from dangerous animals, permits and inspects animal-related businesses, provides emergency rescue services during natural disasters, and enforces all state and local animal control laws.
