Maricopa County Animal Care & Control, East Valley, Mesa, AZ

Some of the dogs brought into the centre are so good they deserve a second chance so are made available for adoption. The dog on the right is available for adoption now. Click on the photo for more information about this dog in need of a home. You can see more adoptable dogs here.

Stray dogs are held 3-5 days before they are put up for adoption or destroyed. Some of these dogs may have been claimed, rescued or euthanized. DO NOT phone the center to check whether your lost dog is there. Hundreds of dogs pass through the center every week. It is not possible for the staff to recognise your dog among the 150 dogs that are brought in every day. Visit the center everyday during their opening hours to check whether your dog has been brought in.

New Hope Program

When Maricopa County Animal Care & Control say that a dog went to "New Hope" they mean it was put into their New Hope Program and passed to one of the rescue organizations that participate in this scheme. Click here for more information.
