East Bay SPCA-Tri-Valley

While some of the East Bay SPCA’s programs and services have been suspended due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, we have not stopped serving our community.

Animal Care

Many of our animals are living in foster homes, where all supplies are provided by the East Bay SPCA. We are accepting stray animals including neonatal kittens, owner surrenders from families who have experienced a change in life circumstances, and we are transferring animals from our municipal partners as needed. more »

Meet cuddler extraordinaire Dilly at the East Bay SPCA's Dublin facility, where he's currently waiting for the people who will love him forever so he can love them back.

Sunday afternoon, October 2 at 2 p.m. at its Dublin adoption center, East Bay SPCA offers a chance to enjoy wine from Canine Wines and Flora Springs, sample tasty hors d'oeuvres, meet adoptable animals, listen to live music, and make generous bids on silent auction items, all in support of its lifesaving work. Founded in Oakland in 1874, the East Bay SPCA is an independent, privately funded organization that operates two adoption facilities, one in Oakland and one in Dublin, as well as a spay/neuter clinic in Oakland. Over the last decade, EBSPCA has placed more than 25,000 dogs and cats in loving homes. Among the guest stars appearing at Growl, Meow & Wine, along with her adopters, is Papaya, a 14-year-old Chihuahua that EBSPCA rescued from another shelter where she was in danger of being euthanized due to her advanced age. Hers is one of the many happy stories to be told Sunday afternoon at the Dublin adoption center. Get the details here.
