Rancho Coastal Humane Society

Rancho Coastal Humane Society (RCHS) is dedicated to the care of animals and the people who love them in Encinitas, CA. Our homegrown private 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization rescues shelters and adopts more than a thousand companion animals annually.

We offer adoption services for dogs, cats, and rabbits. RCHS also provides education programs for children and teens, as well as emergency assistance for pet parents in crisis.

RCHS exists thanks to the loyalty and generosity of our donors and hundreds of volunteers. We are committed to strengthening the human-animal bond!
