The Pennsylvania SPCA Lancaster Center operates out of the Mary K. Dano Animal Shelter - right in the heart of the city of Lancaster. As a community hub, the Lancaster Center is dedicated to reuniting lost animals with their pet parents, finding new homes for adoptable animals and providing low cost services to the community.

 

The Pennsylvania SPCA is committed to helping Lancaster's homeless animals. To learn more about how you can help support this work, please click here to read about the Riley Mathias Fund for Lancaster Adoptions. Help us honor Riley's memory and save animals in need.

The Pennsylvania SPCA Lancaster Center Works Hard to Reunite Families 

Due to the medical care provided, and the work to return animals to their families, the Lancaster facility has reclaim fees. Below please find an explanation of these fees. 

When an animal is reclaimed within 24 hours of entering the shelter, the owner is charged a flat reclaim fee rate of $50. If the animal is not reclaimed within the 24-hour entry period, the reclaim fee will increase by $15 per day for each day the animal is in shelter care.

1st Time Reclaim Fee Schedule: Example

Time in Care - Fees
1st Day within 24 hours - $50
2nd Day - $65
3rd Day - $80
4th Day - $95

After the first shelter visit and reclaim, animals who are brought in as strays are charged additional fees. For the second
reclaim, the flat reclaim fee is $100. For the third and subsequent reclaims the flat reclaim fee is $150. The reclaim fee will
increase by $15 per day for each day the animal is in shelter care.

2nd Time Reclaim Fee Schedule: Example

Time in Care - Fees
1st Day Within 24 Hours - $100
2nd Day - $115
3rd Day - $130
