San Jose's Animal Care Center says Monday's fireworks use only further overwhelmed the already full shelter with runaway pets, as they received 40 lost dogs since Friday.
Comparatively, Terrado said at one point in the early days of theFast forward, he said the shelter received close to 40 lost dogs since Friday, which is 10 more than this time last year.
"It's about a 33% increase in our intake for dogs," Terrado explained."Cats, not so much. But dogs are definitely a lot of our focus when it comes to Fourth of July." Terrado said the center is exhausting every avenue to manage intake - encouraging adoption and fostering and leaning on residents to help temporarily house lost pets.
"There are community members that have found animals, that are electing to keep them at this moment in time," he added."But if they're not able to find owners, then the next step for them is to come to our shelter and drop off those animals that they did find."The shelter is offering incentives to ease impact. Terrado told ABC7 News the shelter is waiving all boarding and impound fees, and is offering free adoptions for cats, dogs, kittens, and puppies.
Since the shelter is full, staff has run out of kennel space for dogs. They're asking the community to help get dogs out of the center so they can make room for the pets that get separated from their families during this year's fireworks."Unfortunately, some of that illegal fireworks use continues in our community," San Jose Fire Department PIO Erica Ray said.
