Kendall County Animal Control

About

Kendall County Animal Control is the County agency responsible for the enforcement of the state statutes governing rabies control in domestic companion animals. The State of Illinois requires that all dogs and cats be vaccinated against rabies by a licensed veterinarian. Compliance with this law is monitored through the issuance of rabies tags for all dogs and cats residing in the County. All dogs and cats are required to wear their rabies tags when off of the owner’s property. If a pet is lost, rabies tags also provide an excellent means of identifying your pet. Kendall Co. Animal Control also enforces the County’s ordinance that prohibits dogs from running at large in unincorporated, residential areas.

Adoption process

Our adoption process is designed to help us find the best possible pet match for you. Adopters are required to bring their entire family to the shelter to visit with the pet to ensure compatibility prior to adoption. When you arrive at the shelter, you will be asked to sign a Visitor Waiver. Each family member visiting must complete and sign a waiver. Adoptions are first come first serve, but as a courtesy a one-time hold of 24 hours or end of next business day may be placed on a pet starting when we receive your completed application. Applications are processed in the order they are received.
