Coquitlam Animal Shelter

The city’s own shelter on Mariner Way — dogs picked up roaming in Coquitlam are taken here, and dog licences are bought here in person.

What to do here

Call about a lost or found dog in Coquitlam, and visit the shelter in person every two or three days — a dog picked up roaming goes here first. The BC SPCA Tri-Cities centre in the same city handles cruelty investigations and surrenders separately.

One organisation is never the whole search

A pet is found by whoever happens to be nearby, so the shelter, the city, the registry and the local search groups each hold a different piece. Work the list rather than one entry on it.
