Hope Starts Here.
Whether an animal is injured, abandoned, neglected, or simply in need of a loving home, we're ready to help.
Since 1867, we’ve shown up when animals needed us. They still do.
Adopt Balto
Featured Pet: MLAR
Adopt Balto
Meet Balto, a gentle and sweet soul. Despite his shyness and under-socialization, Balto has a heart full of love waiting to be shared. He may need a little extra patience and gentle encouragement to come out of his shell, but once he warms up, his loyal and loving nature shines through. Adopting Balto means giving him the chance to flourish in a nurturing home where he can finally feel safe and loved. He's ready to be your devoted companion.

An update on Marco who I adopted last July: he just turned 16 and is doing great! His perfect day is sleeping on a big comfy blanket and looking forward to his next meal. He's been a wonderful addition to our home ❤️
