Surrender A Pet
Due to our limited resources, we are only able to assist with animals from Oakdale, Riverbank and Escalon at this time. We are strictly foster based when it comes to dogs, so we are frequently dependent on current owners or rescuers to continue to house dogs while we look for new adopters. Please email us the info requested below for any type of surrender, and call us if you have additional questions (209) 604-2649.
Owner Surrender
If you have an owned pet that you can no longer keep, please email the following information to us at info@astrofoundation.org. City you live in, name of pet, photo(s) of pet, description of age and temperament, medical records (if any), and the reason for surrender.
Found Pets
If you have found an animal that clearly does not have an owner (kittens in a bush, pregnant cat dumped at river, etc.) or it has already been checked for a microchip, listed on found pets pages and reported to Animal Control, please submit the following information to info@astrofoundation.org. Location of pet, photo(s) of pet, age estimate, and description of temperament. ​​
Please Note:
Notes on dogs: ASTRO Foundation is strictly foster based when it comes to dogs. If you have a dog you can no longer keep, or found a dog with no owner and need help finding placement, please keep in mind we do not have a facility to house dogs around the clock. If you are able to foster the pet while we prepare it for adoption and await a forever home, we will be more likely to be able to assist.
​
Notes on cats: While we can house up to forty cats/kittens at our Adoption Center, we rescue thousands of animals each year and space is limited at our facility. If you have found a cat/kittens and we are full, please consider fostering the animals for us while we prepare them for adoption.
