Our mission is to protect and support our community through coordinated emergency response for both animals and first responders.

As a County-approved large animal evacuation site, we provide safe refuge and staging for rescue vehicles during natural disasters and critical incidents. Equally, we serve as a vital public safety asset—offering a secure, fully equipped facility for use as a command post, staging zone, training site, and base camp for fire, law enforcement, EMS, and other emergency personnel.

By bridging animal welfare with emergency response operations, we are committed to safeguarding lives, enhancing preparedness, and strengthening the resilience of San Diego County.
