On July 16, 2024, the Ontario City Council approved the Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) to establish the West-End Animal Services Agency (WEASA), DBA Animal Resource Center of the Inland Empire (ARC).The City of Ontario partnered with the City of Chino to establish WEAS, which will be a full-service animal services agency providing both animal control and sheltering services to member agencies.
Welcome to the Animal Resource Center of the Inland Empire! We're proud to provide full-service animal control and sheltering that keeps our communities safe, humane, and connected to the animals who share our neighborhoods. Every day, our officers, staff, and volunteers show up with compassion and dedication; because every animal deserves care, and every resident deserves a partner they can count on. Thank you for being part of this mission with us!
