Arcadia

California

Every year, thousands of homeless and abandoned pets get a second chance at life with a loving Arcadia, CA, family through Pasadena Humane’s adoption program. In fact, in 2022, we successfully placed 100 percent of all healthy and safe animals we received. Over our 120 years of operation, however, we’ve been able to proudly provide much more than adoption services; we also provide owner assistance, animal care and control, pet training, licensing, wildlife programs and much more. Whether you’ve lost your pet, want to adopt, are interested in our kids’ programs, or need dog training classes, we’re the ultimate resource for Arcadia, CA, pet owners, both current and prospective. Donate today to help an Arcadia, CA, animal in need.

Become a Foster Pet Parent in Arcadia, CA

Whether your schedule doesn’t allow you to commit to a husky or your apartment size isn’t conducive to a Doberman, there are still many ways that you can enjoy the love and companionship of large dogs through Pasadena Humane’s fostering program. We’re always in need of Arcadia, CA, foster homes for our large dog breeds. By providing a two-week commitment to foster a large dog, you can give them a break from the shelter and provide us with important information about what the dog is like in a home environment without needing to commit long-term. If you aren’t able to provide a two-week commitment, we also offer several other versatile fostering programs, including foster sleepovers and foster field trips. Whether you only have a few hours to spare to walk a pup around Arcadia, CA or you’d like to open up your Arcadia, CA, home for several weeks, any time you can donate to a pup in need will make a difference in their quality of life and improve their chances of adoption. Register as a foster volunteer today to be paired with a large dog, baby kitten, nursing mom, injured animal, or any of our other pets in need.
