The Chula Vista Animal Care Facility (CVACF) takes in approximately 6,000 homeless animals each year from Chula Vista, National City and Lemon Grove. Animals housed at the shelter receive personalized care and comprehensive medical treatment to keep them safe and healthy.
Step 1: Adoption Requirements - Adding a pet to your family is a big decision. All animals require training and commitment. Some pets can live well into their teens and just like people, many may have special medical needs as they get older (medication, frequent check-ups, etc.) This should be considered before you decide to take on this trusted responsibility. Persons wishing to adopt a pet must: Complete the CVACF Animal Adoption application; Be at least 18 years of age; Have current and verifiable identification; Live where pets are allowed; All members of household must be present for adoption; If you are a current dog owner, you must bring your dog for on-site introduction. Step 2: View and visit your new friend! Step 3: Adoption Application - All new pet owners must complete and submit an adoption application for approval. Step 4: Congratulations! You are now the new owner of a loving friend.
