Surrender

Surrendering your pet to TCRAS

TCRAS is a small, limited-access shelter; due to limited space and resources, not every pet is able to be admitted to the shelter. When space is available, priority will be given to pets adopted previously from TCRAS and then be offered in order of when the surrender request was submitted. NOTE: We ONLY accept dogs and cats.

Due to potential extended wait times before your animal may enter the shelter, we suggest you also create a profile for your pet on Rehome. By doing so, your pet will be seen by animal lovers in your area looking to add a furry family member to their home. You can select potential adopters and the wait time to find a new home for your pet may be drastically decreased.

To begin the process to see if your pet may be a candidate for our program and to get on our waiting list, please fill out the form below and submit. Your open and honest answers are necessary and appreciated and will help us determine how we can best help you and your pet. You will be contacted by a staff member of TCRAS once space becomes available and if your pet was determined to be a good fit for our program and resources.

Maybe our Paw in Hand Program can help?

This program supports families that are struggling with a furry family member’s challenging behavior and/or some medical problems and who feel that surrendering their pet is the only option available. This program is open to Teller County residents and their companion pet, even if the cat or dog was not adopted from TCRAS.
