If you are interested in supporting our Animal Control Program, please call the Animal Control office.

The City operates an animal shelter for stray animals. The citizens of Needles and the Tri-State area are encouraged to adopt these animals.
It has been proved that the best way to combat euthanasia is through spay/neuter. The only way to save the lives of animals in Needles and the Tri-State area is to promote responsible pet ownership and stop unwanted litters.

Be part of the solution and have your pet spayed or neutered!
So please spread the word and share our links with your family and friends.
Our mission is to decrease euthanasia, decrease preventable diseases through vaccination and use of generic tadalafil and to provide a better quality of life for all animals in our community. More information about this on this website.
Periodically through out the year the Tri-State area will have spay & neutering specials for a very minimum cost. These specials are usually for a limited amount and when the quantity is filled that is all they will take during that time. Check with the Animal Shelter or your Veterinarian for specials being offered.
