Extra Post 6: Inland Valley Humane Society

Glendora Animal Control is a contracted out animal control facility, they typically do not have adoptions and there is only a few holding spots for animals. Because of this, my mentor Jolean Miller and the other officer, Vanessa Alvarez have to take the remaining animals who are not picked up by the next week to Inland Valley.

Inland Valley is NOT a no-kill shelter meaning, within two to three days of a animal being in the shelter, it could possibly be euthanized. The reason they do this is because the overpopulation rate in the shelter is too large to hold the animals any longer. It is a sad and inhumane process that should be stopped, but as for now is still running.
