When the County of Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control (DACC) was formed in 1937, stray dogs running throughout the community posed not only a significant risk to the public, but a danger to the animal as well. Dogs were often hit by cars, involved in territorial disputes with one another, transmitted disease, and/or were mistreated by uncaring people.
Today, DACC has evolved with our thriving County, providing protection to both animals and people, in addition to many other services.
If you suspect or know of animal cruelty, abuse, neglect, or illegal animal fighting occurring in one of our contract cities or within the unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County, please contact us.
