Los Angeles County Animal Control

Animal Care & Control 

The City of Industry partners with the County of Los Angeles’ Department of Animal Care and Control (DACC) to address animal services for our City.  

DACC provides the following services: pet adoptions, pet license renewal, stray sheltering services, animal facility licensing, and microchip registration.  DACC is one of the largest and most progressive animal control agencies in the United States and provides animal services for the City of Industry from their Baldwin Park Animal Care Center location. 

Hours

All Animal Care Centers visits are by appointment only and can be self-scheduled at the DACC website.  

Through our partnership with DACC, the residents of Industry receive these benefits: 

  • Pet License Management: All dogs and cats in Industry must be licensed. Please visit the Department’s website to learn more about how to license your pet(s) or to apply for a license online. 
  • Lost Pet: Visit the DACC “If You Lost Your Pet” page for various resources and tips for locating your lost pets! 
  • Found A Pet:  DACC also displays found animals. 
  • Adoption via countywide animal care centers that shelter animals for adoption.  Most of our animals are either strays or pets turned in by owners who are no longer able to keep them. The many benefits of adopting from a County Animal Care Center include low-cost spaying/neutering, a free veterinary checkup, the peace of mind knowing that your new pet has received its initial vaccinations against contagious diseases, and the satisfaction of having saved the life of a shelter animal. 
  • Community Outreach via vaccination, microchip, and spay/neuter events
  • Animal Control Officers are available seven days a week, 24 hours a day to answer requests for service and patrol neighborhoods, increasing public safety.
    • Submit non-emergency service requests using the online form. 
    • Report urgent matters such as dangerous animals and animal abuse to the emergency hotline. 
    • Inspect animal-related business such as dog and cat kennels, pet shops, grooming parlors, animal exhibition events, animal menageries, and mobile groomers.  Inspections include facilities with guard dogs, circuses, and establishments that require a conditional use permit. 

Volunteering with Animals 

For those who enjoy helping animals, there are volunteer opportunities working side-by-side with DACC in animal welfare and administrative areas.

Also, there is always the ability to donate to the Los Angeles County Animal Care Foundation.  The Foundation is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) charitable organization that raises money to support the animals served by the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control.
