Much confusion is being circulated regarding LA Animal Services Mobile Adoption Program.
Please understand that WE DID NOT CANCEL THE OFFSITE ADOPTION PROGRAM. We simply redeployed our limited human resources. The ONLY off site events canceled were the ones at venues that historically proved to be unproductive and a poor return on time and energy invested.
These events were cancelled because so few animals were adopted at these locations. It was not uncommon for no animals to be adopted from these venues.
In their place staff is selecting higher profile venues such as parks, street fairs, and other community events.
If anyone knows of a venue conducive to placing animals into loving homes, please contact LA Animal Services’ Volunteer Office with that information:

LA Animal Services conducted nearly 100 off site adoption events in 2006 compared to 15 or 20 in previous years. And we intend to do even more in 2007. As always thank you for your concern and support of LA Animal Services and the animals in our care.
