About Me

Antioch Animal Services300 "L" St Antioch Ca, 94509History: Since 1979, after a public vote to re-establish a city-run animal shelter, Antioch Animal Services has been the only city in Contra Costa County to offer its own animal services program. We are dedicated to promoting animal welfare and are responsible for the enforcement of Local and State Laws relating to the care, control and protection of animals and citizens.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

You!! If you have even just a few hours a week to volunteer it would help out immeasurably. You can walk dogs, socialize cats, work with small animals, there's no end to what you can do!
