Join Us on Saturday, June 16th, to Celebrate our 88th Anniversary!
 
See our 'new' look!
 
Thanks to Eagle Scouts Eric and John, we've gotten a facelift,
 
 and
 
the 'Royals Go Ruff' have replanted our planter beds!
 
We'll have cake for everyone
and lots of fabulous dogs and cats
available for adoption!
 
Our Goal?
We'd like to have 88 adoptions on our Anniversary weekend!

 Meet Domino!

He's our special boy who's in need of eye surgery -

'Dom' has an old 'tom cat' injury to his left eye and we owe it to him to repair it.  He's such a love and a truly handsome boy with his 'domino' fur coat.  If you'd like to donate towards Domino's eye surgery he'd truly appreciate it! 

And if you'd like to adopt this special boy that would be even better!  (You can meet him in person in our 'Meow Manor'.)

(We just saw the Eye Doctor - Domino will have two pre-surgery blood tests and if everything is in order he can be scheduled for his surgery. 

The approximate cost will be $2,500.  So far we've collected $1,928.18! 

There is nothing better than the joy that comes from
giving a forever home to one of our dogs or cats!
THINK ADOPTION FIRST!

A recent ad in the Los Angeles Times stated that
The Humane Society of the United States,
and the ASPCA,
do not contribute to, or fund, local Humane Societies.
 
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE!
 
We do not receive any funding or support what-so-ever
from either of those organizations. 
 
As a small, private, non-profit Humane Society, we rely solely on donations
from the public, adoption fees and clinic services,
and income we derive from animal control contracts that we have with four local cities.  The  State of California requires all stray animals to be held for a period of 3 days, in the hopes of reuniting lost pet and owner.  The cities pay a fee that covers only those 3 days to shelter stray animals that animal control officers pick up in those cities.  After the 3 day hold period, the San Gabriel Valley Humane Society is responsible for all costs of sheltering the animals.  And as you know, we give every pet the opportunity for a chance of a new forever home much longer than 3 days, and the costs are in excess of $20 per day per animal!
 
Please, please, please support your local Humane Society.
We really need you!

The torrential rain storms of 2010 and the extraordinary windstorm certainly highlighted the dilapidated condition of the shelter.  The collapse of the Sanctuary roof, major damage to the Mini Meow Manor Cat Habitat, and damage to the heating unit of our Big Dog Kennels - and the subsequent media attention -  
resulted in an outpouring of community support.  
Thank you to all who responded in our hour of need.
 
Plans are underway to rebuild our Feline Adoption Center
and Canine Adoption Compound.   
 
We are approaching our 88th year, and we want there to be many, many more years to care for, and shelter, so many homeless dogs and cats hoping for a second chance.
 
PLEASE, won't you help make our new shelter a reality?
Share in our dream!

  • Come see and enjoy our new 'Canine Meet & Greet' Courtyard!  System Pavers has very generously donated their fabulous pet-friendly artificial turf to create a magnificent park-like setting!
  • Is your goal no more homeless pets and 'No Kill'?  There are three great solutions:
Adopt and encourage the adoption of the unwanted pets that end up at shelters
(the number one reason pets are in shelters is because they were discarded, abandoned and unwanted by their owners.);
 
If you have a  pet, commit fully to caring for it for it's entire lifetime -
 (Dogs can live 14-16 years and Cats can live 18-20 years)
 
and
 
Promote Spay and Neuter!
 
You can be part of the solution by providing a home to an unwanted pet
and insuring that your own pets are spayed and neutered!
