What do I do if I want to surrender or relinquish my pet to the shelter?

You can relinquish your pet to the shelter Monday through Friday, Noon to 6 p.m., or Saturday through Sunday, Noon to 5 p.m. There is a $30 surrender fee per animal. If you live outside Hutchinson, but still in Reno County, please call ahead; we may not have space to accept your animal. We cannot accept animals from outside of Reno County. If you have any records (i.e. veterinarian records) those would be helpful for us also.
