The City's Animal Control program was established in 2004 to assist the citizens and animals of Torrance. The goals and objectives of the Animal Control Section are to reunite lost pets with their owners, help sick or injured animals, educate the public when dealing with wildlife, human investigations, and impoundment of lost or stray animals. Animals found by the Torrance Animal Control are only kept a short time at our facility. To learn more or to locate your lost animal, click here.
Animal Control is also responsible for the issuance of animal licenses and the enforcement of local and state laws pertaining to domesticated and wild animals.
