Founded in 1953, the Animal Service League is an all-volunteer organization concerned with the rescue, care and welfare of homeless domestic animals in the Rochester New York area. Cats, dogs, birds and other domestic animals in need of shelter and veterinary help are cared for until they can be restored to their original owners or new homes found. No animal is ever destroyed for lack of a permanent home. The animals are cared for on a temporary basis in our Haven Homes until they are ready to be placed in a permanent home. When available for adoption, the animals are shown at "Adoption Day" events held most weekends at various area merchants. This web site and our business line (585) 234-7275 can give you the exact times and locations for these events.

If you are interested in adoption, the process begins with the completion of an adoption application. Once reviewed and approved by an ASL agent, a home visit may be the next step. If all goes well, at the time of adoption, you will sign an adoption agreement. This agreement serves as a protection for both the pet and the new owner. One of the most important commitments to which the adopter must agree is to have the animal spayed or neutered (if this has not already been done) at the earliest appropriate age. Volunteers are always needed to help with adoption day events, transporting animals, haven homes and obedience training. Donations are most welcome - we can use crates, carriers, blankets, food bowls, toys, food and time!
