Surrendering a Pet to the Shelter
ATTENTION: Lollypop Farm is currently facing a high volume of requests for pets to be admitted to the shelter.
At this time, our shelter is at capacity, and our teams are working hard to help as many pets and people as possible. We are prioritizing pets and families facing emergencies and other urgent situations. We urge those who need help to use the resources found on our website and fill out the admissions consultation request form online. A member of the admissions team will get in touch with you as soon as possible. We are asking at this time that people contact us rather than attempting to admit their pet to the shelter by walk-in appointment. This will allow us to ensure resources and space for the pets in our care. If you are facing an emergency, please give us a call at 585-223-1330.
When things aren’t working out with your pet, no matter what the issue is, knowing what to do or where to turn can be difficult. Lollypop Farm has lots of resources to help pets and people facing challenges.
As always, there are many ways to help support the shelter and the community’s pets, including adoption, becoming a foster volunteer, and to help provide services for the many pets in our care.
