Emergency Livestock Shelter
A safe place for your animals in an emergency.
When wildfire, flood or disaster forces you to evacuate, bring your livestock and pets to us. We provide a safe place, feed and water — always free.
All placements are arranged through Southern Oregon Emergency Aid. Please call them first — don't bring animals without a placement.
In an emergency
Evacuating? Bring them to us.
All of our placements come through Southern Oregon Emergency Aid. They take the calls, check the animals and place them where they fit best. We don't transport animals — you bring them, and we provide shelter, feed and water.
Phone lines run by Southern Oregon Emergency Aid.
