HALO Animal Rescue HALO (Helping Animals Live On) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit no-kill animal rescue. www.halorescue.org

Located in sunny Phoenix, Arizona, HALO Animal Rescue is a safety net for thousands of homeless dogs and cats each year. We are a no-kill facility, which means we never euthanize an animal because we have run out of room, but it also means we are limited in the animals we can take in at any given time.

Pupdate time! "Gumby is doing so well. He's super playful but also chill in the house. And he's getting along with all our dogs and farm animals. He fit right in and everyone loves him! He's the most sweet and affectionate dog I think we've ever met. He slept in our bed last night and literally hugged and cuddled with us all night. He is so loving! He is very bonded and follows us everywhere and seems to truly enjoy being close and having company. He's also been really good with potty training. Every time we take him out, he uses the opportunity to go potty and hasn't had any accidents. He's just a pure delight to have around. Thank you for the great adoption experience and the opportunity to give little Gumby a home! We could not love him anymore. Thank you again for everything 🙏🏼❤️" This just warms our hearts to see Gumby blossom in his new home and with all of his new pack. We are thankful to his adopters for giving him a loving home.

Hugo is a charming 25-pound 9 month old, white terrier mix with a heart full of potential. He’s the celebrity of the week at our Deer Valley PetSmart location. This sweet boy may be a little timid at first, but once he feels comfortable, he's sure to melt your heart with his gentle nature. Hugo is looking for a quiet home where he can take his time adjusting to new surroundings. He will thrive in a peaceful environment. Hugo's ideal home will have another friendly dog to help him feel secure and confident. He is much more comfortable with a furry companion by his side. As part of his adoption process, Hugo would love to meet the whole family to ensure everyone gets along and to help him feel at ease in his new home. If you're looking for a calm, loving dog to add to your family, Hugo might be the perfect fit. With patience and kindness, Hugo will become your loyal companion, bringing joy and love to your life. We hope you’ll come down to 2901 W Agua Fria Fwy and meet him today!

Pupdate time! "Hello! Wanted to provide an update for Wiley. She came to her new home after Thanksgiving and was welcomed by a few other friends. Dobby, our cat, needed a few days to himself but they’re now sleeping in the same bed. Emma, the shepherd, has become her true partner in crime. Wiley has stolen the hearts of everyone she’s met and made many friends. We love her so much and are so grateful for the chance to provide her a home ❤️" Wiley looks like she's living her best life with her best family, which makes us so happy! Thank you to her adopters for sharing this awesome pupdate.

Our Story

HALO (Helping Animals Live On) is a private, 501(c)(3), non-profit organization founded in 1994 by two women, Michel Herstam and Heather Allen, out of their homes in Phoenix, AZ. HALO provides temporary shelter to abandoned cats and dogs until they can be adopted into a permanent home.

In 2008, HALO transitioned from a completely foster-based organization to one with their first shelter facility on 35th Avenue in Phoenix. In 2011, HALO also moved into an underutilized building at the Maricopa County Animal Care and Control (MCACC) West facility and began offering pets for adoption from there as well. In 2012, HALO added a PetSmart Charities "Everyday Adoption Center" at the PetSmart in Deer Valley to their offsite locations.

In 2006 HALO opened its first thrift boutique to help raise funds for the homeless pets. Our current thrift boutique, open since July, 2009, is located at 11649 North Cave Creek Road in Phoenix.
