Lost and Found
We’ve partnered with Petco Love Lost for all of our lost and found pet reporting.
Petco Love Lost is a new, searchable national database that uses patented facial recognition technology to make finding lost pets quicker and easier. This simple-to-use tool is easily accessible to participating animal organizations nationwide, as well as any pet parent or person who finds a lost pet. Uploaded photos of a missing dog or cat are immediately scanned to determine whether the lost pet is at a participating shelter or with a neighbor in the community.
To have a lost/found pet posted on our social media please email a flyer (include a photo, location last seen (nearest intersection), and any helpful information).
Animals are lost every day in San Antonio.
In one moment, a small hole in the fence, a gate left open, or even a thief can cause a family to lose their beloved pet. Here are a couple ways to hopefully recover your four-legged loved one.
First and most importantly, microchipping your pet can greatly increase their chances of being returned to you. Be sure to microchip your animal and make sure you follow the proper procedures. The San Antonio Humane Society offers microchip implantation and registration for only $43.00.
Second, putting up signs and flyers is a good way for people to be on the lookout and recognize your pet, should it wander past them. Please e-mail your flyer or bring it to the front desk.
To reclaim your animal from the San Antonio Humane Society, there is a $59 reclaim fee and a fee of $11 per day for boarding. Every pet reclaimed will have to be microchipped at the owner’s expense if not already chipped. This fee is not included in the reclaiming fee. Please call 210-226-7461 for more information.

Lost/Found Pets on stray search at the SAHS
Stray Search, what does it mean? This is indicated on their profile under “Stage”. What does “Stray Search” means? When an animal comes into our facility as a found pet, we will place a temporary hold allowing their owners an opportunity to find their loved ones. Once an animal is available for adoption, their “Stage” will be updated to “Available”. We ask that you continue to check back for updates on those pets.
