After being attacked by another dog, Beetle Juice was left unable to walk with serious wounds. His person—his best friend—knew he needed help and reached out to our Homeless Outreach Assistance Program (H.O.A.P.). We arranged for urgent medical care, X-rays, and treatment. His owner did not want an event like this to ever happen again so after learning more about the benefits, he requested Beetle Juice be neutered.

Throughout his healing, Beetle Juice would need 10 long weeks of bandage changes, and transportation was a struggle for his owner. With the help of incredible volunteers, we ensured Beetle Juice never missed an appointment. Through it all, his person faced countless challenges—displacement, stolen belongings, and medical struggles—but he never gave up on Beetle Juice.

Now, Beetle Juice is finally bandage-free and where he belongs. For many people experiencing homelessness, pets are family—the most precious part of their lives. This is why we do what we do. ❤️ Pictured here are nearly all the staff volunteers who helped him heal. It takes a village, and we’re so grateful for ours.

Do you know our family? 🐾These two scruffy adventurers were found this morning inside the Sacramento Zoo after somehow making their way through the turnstiles! We know someone out there must be missing them. They’re nervous here at the shelter and clearly missing home. Please help us spread the word so we can reunite the little explorers with their family!

Meliodas's BIG day out!

Long term resident Meliodas got a much-needed break from the shelter and went on a field trip to Sacramento City Hall — and he even met the Mayor! 🏛️ This sweet, smiley boy has been patiently waiting for someone to give him a chance.

💙He’s currently enjoying foster life, but what he really wants is a forever home. If you're looking for a calm, loving adventure buddy, Meliodas is your guy! Visit our website to schedule a meet & greet with this special boy today. 🐾

Shelter vet takes deserving dog on a field trip to the snow! ❄️🐶

Dr. Hansen fell in love with Asta after our medical team saved her life with an emergency surgery, and went the extra mile - literally - to give her the best day ever! She has been waiting over a month for her forever home, and has been very bored in her kennel. From the start of her adventure, it was clear that everything was new for Asta...car rides, cabins, even walking on a leash! She was curious, a little nervous, but full of wonder. She finally let loose in a quiet snowy meadow where she could explore at her own pace. 💙 She’s an explorer at heart, just looking for the right person to show her the way. Could that be with you? Come meet Asta at the shelter!

Remember Ziggy?! We are so excited for this boy, now named Reuben, who was adopted after his Pups & PJs adventure! After a great sleepover and lots of fun, they decided they wanted to make him a permanent family member. ❤

🐾Our Doggy Day Out and Pups & PJs programs not only give the dogs a break from the shelter, but your feedback can also help us learn more about how they are in a home environment. If you’re interested, sign up for a spot on our website!

🎶Because tonight will be the night that you will fall for… Emo Girl! Animal Care Technician Jacob wore this shirt to show just how much we all want her to find her perfect home! 🖤It was never a phase…everyone’s fallen in love with this cutie!
Emo Girl was brought to us as a stray after a Good Samaritan saw someone toss her out of a car and drive away. She tried to chase after them, not understanding why she was left behind. She’s the ultimate scene queen—loyal, loving, and great with other dogs! 🖤🐾Emo Girl is ready to bring all the love, cuddles, and just the right amount of angst into your life. Could she be your new best friend?

Our March vaccine and microchip clinic with Petco Love was a huge success! 💜 Thanks to this partnership, we were able to assist 405 households, providing lifesaving vaccines to 154 cats and 407 dogs—all at no cost to their families.

These vaccines play a vital role in keeping pets healthy and preventing the spread of disease. Our clinics ensure that the community has access to essential care. A huge thank you to our volunteers for dedicating their time to make this event possible! Supporting pets and their owners is at the heart of our mission, and we’re proud to host these clinics every month. For the latest updates on upcoming events, be sure to check our website!

Munchie the poodle was missing for FOUR years, but her journey led her back to Front Street as a stray. Thanks to her up-to-date microchip, we were able to contact her family and share the incredible news.

When they came to pick her up, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room—Munchie is finally home where she belongs. The family was grateful for the finder - a teenager who found Munchie at the light rail station and walked over a mile to drop her off at the shelter.

This is your reminder to microchip your pets and keep your info current…it truly makes miracles happen!

Through our Homeless Outreach and Assistance Program, (H.O.A.P.), we’re bringing essential care such as exams, treatments, spay/neuter services, and more, directly to pets in need.

By meeting unhoused owners where they are, we improve access to care while reducing the number of animals coming into the shelter for treatment. This mobile clinic is a big step toward keeping pets healthy, with their owners, and out of the shelter!
