Blackjack is a special dog who we've had for quite a while. He plays rough with other dogs so he has spent the last few months with a couple of our volunteers so they could work with him.

A family came in this past weekend looking for a dog and a cat...

Winky (cat) was dropped at the clinic's front porch several months ago at probably 6 to 8 weeks old with one eyeball hanging out. The clinical staff removed the eye and he has been with us ever since.

Our volunteers started testing to see whether Blackjack was aggressive toward cats and he showed no aggression. In fact Frank, the clinic "shop cat," whacked him across the face so hard he never wanted to see a cat again.

Sherri decided to set up a controlled environment where we tested Blackjack and Winky.

It was a match made in heaven! Blackjack was so careful and gentle with his new cat.

Back to our family searching for both a dog and a cat — this wonderful couple adopted them both together!

These are the little miracle things that happen in rescue. ❤️

A week ago, we received a call from our pawboost listings for Balto (A723981). The call turned out to be a potential owner, 30 miles south of Long Beach, located in Mission Viejo. They were certain that Balto was their dog Finley, who had escaped on the 4th of July, due to the fireworks. Since Balto was picked up the night of 7/5 tied up at the Vons on Ximeno avenue, it didn't seem likely Balto was their dog, but they were emphatic he was their dog! They came to LBACS on Wednesday afternoon and sure enough, Balto was their dog, Finley! 🐶

Not all lost dogs taken far from where they were found get to experience a family reunion such as Finley did. Over 85% of stray dogs are found less than 5 miles from their actual home, and taking them out of that area greatly diminishes their chances are being reunited. If you find a stray dog, please make sure to scour your neighborhood before bringing an animal to the shelter! 🐾

Visit us to adopt and make space for animals who need our help, like Finley ⤵️

Please text Sherri at (310) 621-1417 if you can volunteer. We have many animals that need our help loose on the streets due to all the fireworks.

It’s not even July and it is a war zone in downtown Long Beach. Although fireworks are illegal in Long Beach, people seem to always find the money for drugs and fireworks.

If you plan on staying home and surviving this year’s Molotov cocktails and illegal fireworks, please keep one of our rescue dogs company, even if just overnight.

We do have indoor kennels but they are horrified already with the explosives going off in the PCH/710 area.

If you can foster a pup for the 4th, PM Sherri here on FB , text (310) 621-1417 or email us at [email protected].

💥💥💥Urgent Urgent💥💥💥

9 Frenchie puppies with Parvo were dropped off to our Fix Parvo ICU in need of rescue and treatment.

Apparently they were found in an abandoned house all alone.

We have been working around the clock to save all of them.

If you have a few dollars, we would really appreciate any help. Food, medical, CPMA and 24 hour care is given.

We need supplies including dry food, boiled chicken, baby food, bone broth…

DONATIONS can be made via PayPal or Venmo at….

- Fix Long Beach Venmo:

- Sparky Venmo: (Sparky and the Gang Stankewitz)

- PayPal: [email protected]

We try a million things to just get them to eat. You can drop off at 1749 Magnolia Ave Long Beach. You can text Sherri at 310 621 1417.

We have one amazing team that goes above and beyond to save and care for all little creatures dumped at our Hospital and rescue.

Times are tough these days and many breeders are just dumping dogs and our poor local shelters are overcrowded and can’t handle one more intake!

4 Cuties Looking for Homes

All boys, fluffy, sweet and ready for homes of their own. They were found on a dirt road all alone in the high desert.

A kind gentleman almost ran one over, so he stopped and found them in a ditch.

They look to be some type of Aussie, Husky and maybe even Doodle mix and have a little wave to their hair.

If you are interested in more information on these boys, email us at [email protected] or call us at (562) 716-7226.

UPDATE: Otis has been adopted! 🥰

We are so grateful for our fosters! Not only do they help us with housing dogs until we are able to find them homes, they also are able to give us feedback on a dog’s personality and traits. Please consider fostering!

Jille is currently fostering Otis and shared some recent “glamour shots” with us.

Otis is an 11 week old Chihuahua/Pug mix (Chug) who was found in a box in front of a local Petsmart when he was 5 weeks old.

If you would like to meet Otis, contact us at [email protected] or call us at (562) 716-7226.

Addison (M), Angel (M) and Angie (F) are part of a litter of 10 puppies found in the Long Beach riverbed.

Our rescue took in all 10 pups, which we believe are yellow labs / shepherd mixes. Unfortunately, three of the puppies did not survive.

The rest of the litter is healthy and thriving, and four of them are now happily settled into their furever homes.

Addison, Angel and Angie are still looking for their furever homes though. If you would like to meet one of these sweet pups, please email us at [email protected] or contact us at (562) 716-7226.
