After literally years of conception, planning, and construction, the new Yucca Valley Animal Shelter will open next week. Managing Editor Tami Roleff says the transition starts Friday…
Yucca Valley’s new animal shelter will open the week of December 9. In order to transition to the new facility, the shelter will be closed Friday, December 6, and Saturday, December 7. Regular shelter hours will resume on Tuesday, December 10, at the new facility, which is across the street from the existing building, at 4755 Malin Way. Telephone and Internet communication for the Animal Shelter and Animal Control will be intermittent through the final three-day, transition period, so visitors on Thursday, December 5, should be prepared for cash-only transactions. The Yucca Valley Animal Shelter will be available by appointment only Friday and Saturday for pet owners to retrieve impounded animals. Call the shelter at 760-365-3111 to arrange a meeting time to pick up your pet or to report a lost or found pet. Messages may also be left at Yucca Valley Town Hall at 760-369-7207 extension 227 or extension 235. Shelter staff will retrieve messages as available throughout the transition period. Those requiring emergency animal assistance during this time should call Animal Control at 760-365-1807 or San Bernardino County Sheriff’s dispatch at 760-365-2364.
