"San Diego Humane Society Issues an Update on Inquiry Into the Status of Small Animals Transported to HSSA

San Diego Humane Society (SDHS) would like to provide an update regarding the transport of 318 small animals from our shelter on August 7, 2023, to the Humane Society of Southern Arizona (HSSA). We formally requested that HSSA share information about the outcomes of 250 of the 318 small animals by Friday, September 8, 2023. Regrettably, we have not received a satisfactory accounting of the status of these animals and our inquiry remains open with HSSA. 

We are currently:

1. Requesting Additional Transparency and Accountability:

We continue to implore HSSA for a comprehensive accounting of the 250 animals that were not returned to HSSA. This information must address specific outcomes for these animals with accompanying documentation verifying whether they have been adopted into new homes, placed in schools, transferred back to the shelter, received any other placement, or are still with the rescue.
2. Exploring Legal Options:

We are actively exploring our legal options in response to HSSA's lack of transparency.

We also want to address some misinformation that has been communicated related to this transfer:

Lack of Advance Knowledge:

We want to emphasize that San Diego Humane Society was not informed that all of the animals transported to HSSA would be transferred to one anonymous private rescue.
We were informed that HSSA had the capacity to accommodate this volume of small pets because they had a shortage of small pets in their community and were collaborating with their rescue community and local schools to secure placements for these animals. 

No Risk of Euthanasia:

Our animals were never at risk of euthanasia as no healthy or treatable animals are in danger of that outcome at San Diego Humane Society. 
San Diego Humane Society proudly upholds a commitment to zero euthanasia of healthy and treatable shelter animals as we have since 2015. We unequivocally stand by this promise to our community.
Safe Transport of the Animals:

The animals were transported to Arizona in a temperature-controlled truck and all arrived in Tucson in good condition. 
Best practices in transporting small animals were adhered to at all times. As a matter of fact, SDHS is one of the authors of national best practices in shelter animal transport.

San Diego Humane Society’s Chief Operating Officer personally transported the animals and oversaw the entire transfer.
We remain committed to advocating for transparency from HSSA and will continue to provide updates on any developments or information we receive regarding the status of the transferred animals".
