Dear Vistors and Fans,
Our events have evolved into a HUGE venue for pet adoptions and rescues. Not only are we educating our event visitors about new products, pet ideas, and pet health, but we are helping to put families with their newest family member through our rescues and adoption groups that are joining us. This is a huge part of our mission - find these beautiful pets a home.

Forever Home Pet Rescue ![]() |
Founded in 2005 by long-time animal rescue volunteers, ForeverHome Pet Rescue’s goal has been to provide care and compassion for the homeless and abused animals of the Los Angeles area, while working to place them in loving adoptive homes. FHPR is a private, not-for-profit organization that operates solely on private donations and volunteer efforts. We strive to be a valuable resource for individuals and groups with an interest in animal welfare and we continue to expand our efforts to reach out to the community on a variety of levels. Each weekend we hold adoption events at satellite facilities and animal-friendly businesses. We hope to maintain high public visibility through community events and other activities focused on topics such as spaying and neutering, volunteering and adoptions. Currently we have two adoption locations in the Los Angeles area - Signal Hill Petsmart on Cherry Avenue in the Long Beach area and Porter Ranch Petco on Rinaldi in the Chatsworth area. Please see our adopt page for addresses and times. For more about what is going on with us, check out our blog

The IACC is home to several innovative programs, such as Third Chance for Pets, which transfers animals from over-crowded shelters where they may have limited chances for adoption. This fall, the IACC will be one of 50 animal shelters participating in the ASPCA’s $100k Challenge. The IACC is the only Southern California shelter participating in this friendly competition that will award a $100, 000 grant to the shelter that places the most animals between August and October. |

"The passion that moves us forward is from Canine Cancer affects one out of every three dogs. Of those, over half of them will die of cancer. The National Canine Cancer Foundation is asking for your help to fund important research grants that are working towards improving those statistics.

Foxy Doxy Dachshund Rescue is a non-profit dog rescue run out of Central California. While we are a "Dachshund" Rescue we also take in other large and small breeds and never back away from aggressive dogs no matter what their breed! At times we will have Rottweilers, Mastiffs, Jack Russells, Beagles you name it we will help with whatever presents itself! We strive to give our rescues a home life while with us and want them to feel like one of our own. None of our dogs sleep outside or in kennels here at Foxy Doxy. We shock many potential adopters by having all our dogs (at times 30 to 40) all in one large x-pen. The dogs are taught to be social and well behaved so they can go to their new forever homes without a huge transition period. Rescuing dogs is a labor of love and too see the dogs go to new forever families makes it worth all the tears and hard work! |

As a registered Therapy Dog, Barker was a welcomed distraction to patients and staff he visited in hospitals, convalescent facilities, and Make-A-Wish® chapter offices across Southern California and Arizona. Barker gave each and every person he encountered a measure of compassion and strength. His big yellow eyes gave you permission to leave it all – the pain, the stress, the complexities of life – at his feet. As Ambassador Barker, he embodied the Foundation’s tenets of hope, strength and joy during visits with wish kids, meetings with volunteers, at events and certainly when he helped grant wishes. The Make-A-Wish Foundation is honoring Ambassador Barker and ensuring his legacy lives on forever. The Foundation is establishing the Ambassador Barker Wish in Perpetuity Fund through the Wishes Forever® endowment campaign. This fund will grant wishes for a therapy or service dog every year, forever in Barker’s honor. |

Shambala / ROAR Foundation![]() |
The Roar Foundation, founded in 1983 by Tippi Hedren, exists solely to support the abandoned exotic felines at Shambala Preserve. Our mission is to educate the public about the dangers of private ownership of exotic animals. Huge numbers of dangerous animals are bred and sold in the United States for illegal purposes. Private ownership presents a grave danger to the public and is cruel and unfair. More stringent legislation is needed to prohibit breeding and selling. We are actively involved on federal as well as state levels. |
