Pet Surrender

WHEN YOU CAN NO LONGER CARE FOR YOUR PET…

We understand that circumstances can arise where saying goodbye to your best friend is the only option left. We at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay would like to help as many people and pets as we can by providing a safe place for the surrendered dog or cat until a new forever family adopts him/her. Unfortunately we are unable to take EVERY pet that is surrendered to us. Available space, animal temperament, health and age are just a few things that must be considered prior to accepting a new pet into our shelter.

Please call 813-876-7138 and select extension 0 to make an appointment. We will do our best to help in any way that we possibly can during this difficult time.

In January 2010, I saw Ian’s picture on the Humane Society of Tampa Bay’s website. I immediately left work and went to meet him. I knew instantly he was our dog. Later that day my husband and daughters met Ian, and we adopted him that day. Ian is now known as Dodger. Dodger is the perfect dog for our family. He is well-behaved and wonderful with our daughters and cats. He also does well with each rescue dog that we foster and absolutely loves to play with them in our backyard. We feel so fortunate to have found him. Thank you! Karen Morris
