At Northeast Animal Shelter, we aim to help as many animals, and people, as possible. To do so, NEAS places a large focus on our animal relocation program which transports animals from underserved communities across the country to Massachusetts, where the demand for adoption remains high. Because of this, our facility’s capacity is primarily dedicated to support this program, and we do our best to take in local surrenders when possible.

If you are no longer able to care for your pet and need additional information about how to re-home your animal, or need to speak with the shelter about surrender, please fill out the surrender inquiry profile and a staff member will get back to you as soon as possible.
