San Diego Shelter Overwhelmed | California News
Description
San Diego Humane Society is in crisis mode after taking in 23 adult Chihuahuas—and over 100 animals total—in one day, pushing their capacity to 171%. Many of these tiny pups arrive with health issues and anxiety, requiring extra care. The shelter’s team is racing to vaccinate, bathe, and vet each animal before adoption. This isn’t just a local problem—shelters nationwide are overwhelmed. They’re urgently asking the public to adopt (especially larger dogs to free up space) or foster—even temporarily—with all supplies and medical care provided. Adoption Month means half-off fees (except horses), and on Aug 29, Clear the Shelters Day, fees are waived entirely. Apply to foster now at their website.
