 Dear Animal Lover Community,

My name is Lilo, and I really need you 💔. A kind lady rescued me and my buddy Stitch and brought us to the shelter.

Stitch has already been adopted, but now I’m here in the shelter alone. I miss Stitch, and I miss being happy and loved.

I know how to be a good girl…I’m calm, loving, good on a leash, and I’ve kept my shelter kennel clean.

But I keep waiting and waiting…and everyone passes me by…

All I want is one chance at a happy ending…can you help me?

With a Heavy Heart,
Lilo

Video: Vader’s heart is as big and broken by stress in the Animal Shelter.

This is what kennel stress looks like…💔
Vader desperately wants out of the shelter. He’s one of our longest stay dogs and we all don’t know why.
He’s a shelter favorite and he’s used as a dog tester because he’s so wonderful with other dogs.
He’s also kid friendly and appears potty trained.
Vader deserves a better life than this…can you help him find a loving home?

Recap of Sunni’s successful Doggie Date . Her lucky dater raved about her sweet nature. Ready to adopt or date Sunni?

Doggie Date Recap! 🐶❤️

Our beautiful girl Sunni recently went on a Doggie Date. Check out what her lucky dater had to say:
“I don’t know how Sunni isn’t adopted yet! She is one of the sweetest and most evenly tempered dogs I’ve met! We spent most of Friday with Sunni and she didn’t bark once!
We took Sunni to the park where she played with my 2 girls and loved them both. While she was at first hesitant with my 3-year-old, she quickly warmed up to her and would go over for pets and hugs!
At the park, Sunni was friendly the entire time. She had other dogs, children, and adults walk past her and she mostly paid no attention or let them pet her. She was a little hesitant getting in my car at first, but she sat and laid down, and was a perfect car rider.
Sunni is a wonderful, sweet, and loving dog, and she’d be an amazing companion to anyone!”

Dear Animal Lover Community,
My name is Jewel. I’m so scared to be in the shelter that I’m having a hard time gaining weight…
The shelter staff has even changed my diet to high calories, but I’m still struggling…
All I want is a home to love and recover in…but space is limited at the shelter, so time is running out….
Can you help me find an adopter, foster, or rescue?
With a heavy heart,

Don’t let their age fool you, senior dogs have plenty of love left to give.

Looking for a furry friend? Consider adopting a senior dog! 🐾

Here are just a few reasons why they make paw-some companions:

1) They’re already settled into their personalities, so you know exactly what you’re getting.

2) They’re often less energetic and require less exercise, making them perfect for cozy nights in.

3) They’re experts at cuddling and companionship, so they’ll stick by your side through thick and thin.

4) You’re giving them a second chance at a happy, loving home in their golden years.

Ready to open your heart to a senior dog? Come meet our wise and wonderful companions today! 💖

His date says he loves kids, is incredibly sweet, and friendly with humans and dogs. Gary seems like the perfect pet for you.

Doggie Date Recap! 🐶❤️

Our handsome boy Gary recently went on a Doggie Date. Check out what his lucky dater had to say:

“Gary is an absolute sweetheart! My girls and I took him to a park where he met a number of people and other dogs. Both my girls ran around with Gary and played with him. He then sat down on the grass and snuggled with us and just wanted to be loved on.

It seems like Gary is toilet trained and once he calmed down a little, he loved being outside and being around myself and my girls. He loves children and is very sweet to other people, and he seems to be very dog friendly.

Gary seems like he would be a perfect family dog who would happily play with kids and be sweet to little ones, gladly go out and exercise with anyone, but then happily lay down and snuggle on the couch.

He truly is an amazing dog and if it wasn’t for my husband and us already having 2 dogs, I would have taken him home to foster until he found a family. He seemed so grateful to get out.”

Sienna has transformed from a timid shelter dog to a playful pup who brings joy to her new family.

Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐶

Sienna, formerly Cinder, has come out of her shell and brought a ton of happiness to her new family! Check out what they had to say:

“Sienna has come on leaps and bounds in the time she’s been with us!

When I brought her home from the shelter, she was so terrified that it took 3 days for her to come out of her crate on her own. We had to lift her up and carry her outside to go potty because she wouldn’t walk.

It’s incredible now to see this happy girl bouncing around the yard and trying to get her older sisters to play! This formerly scared little girl is now a spunky puppy, and we couldn’t be happier! She’s also very patient with her human brothers – she’s the perfect fit for our family!”

It looked like Chance didn’t have a chance to ever make it out of the Animal Shelter. Until now.

Congratulations to Chance and his new fur-ever family!!! 🎉

We have some amazing news- Chance has been adopted!

Chance came to the shelter in alarming shape. He had scars and wounds covering his body, he was starved and had both front legs fractured. Tail To Tail Training stepped in to give this boy a second chance.

What the trainers discovered about Chance was he’s a loving dog! And one of the most dog social dogs around. They nursed his body and mind back to health and now Chance has a new family💕

Thank you to Tail To Tail Training for saying yes to Chance. Thank you Pasadena Animal Shelter for initial vetting and time to find help. And thank you to the PAAW friends for networking to find Chance help.

“I got Rocky on 05/09/2022 as a foster. Eventually I adopted him on 07/20/2022 because I just couldn’t give him back.
This boy had been abandoned twice and I don’t see how. He is the friendliest and most loving dog you could ever have. He’s so friendly that he thinks a bee is his friend.
Rocky doesn’t know, but he definitely saved my life. He has a big brother that loves him very much. Rocky also adores him.
I cannot thank the Pasadena Animal Shelter enough for blessing me with this amazing boy! You can tell the difference that a little over a year has made.”

Parks and Recreation tip: Don’t be a crape murderer.

🫣↔️DON’T DO THIS TO YOUR CRAPE MYRTLES!!! The City of Pasadena’s Parks and Landscaping team recommends following Texas A&M Forest Service’s guidelines below. Although many have been struggling because of recent freezes and droughts, if you prune and maintain your crape myrtles properly, they will bloom beautifully!!

Texas A&M Forest Service:  “Crape myrtles are a common and beautiful sight in landscapes across Texas. Unfortunately, the practice known as “crape murder” is also a common sore-eyed sight seen this time of year. While winter months are typically a good time to prune trees, crape murder is an incorrect pruning practice that removes the entire top of the tree each year, also known as topping.

It’s a common myth that this practice is needed to create brilliant blooms or reduce the height of the tree. In reality, crape murder promotes the vigorous growth of many, weakly attached shoots from each cut. Done year after year, crape murder can lead to disfiguration and the decline of the tree.
So, how can we stop and prevent this practice?
First, when planting crape myrtles, select the right variety for the space. Look up the mature height of your selection before planting to ensure it won’t outgrow the space.
Next, prune to maintain the natural form of the tree. Less is typically more here. Focus on removing dead, dying, broken, diseased or rubbing branches and suckers that grow from the base of the tree.
Finally, help spread the word that crape murder should be stopped and together, maybe we can bring this crime to an end

U.S. Coast Guard Sector Houston-Galveston saves Connie the Container Dog.

From Rescue to a Happily Ever After! 🚢⚓️
Yesterday, a team of marine inspectors from the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Houston-Galveston saved the life of a dog in an amazing way.
While inspecting containers, MST3 Bryan Wainscott, MST1 Lucas Loe, MST2 Ryan McMahon, and MST3 Jose Reyes heard barking and scratching from one of the containers in the stack. Suddenly, a dog emerged when the door of the container was opened!
This beautiful girl was trapped in the container for at least a week. She was tired, hungry, and very happy to be rescued. The Guardsmen immediately gave her water and brought her to our shelter for further care.
This brave pup, now named Connie the Container Dog, is safe and sound with Forever Changed Animal Rescue. Let’s salute the heroes who not only safeguard our waters but also rescue precious souls in need.
If anyone is interested in adopting Connie, please apply with Forever Changed Animal Rescue! ❤️

A look back at Heritage Park & Museum’s Christmas Homecoming with the Pomeroy and Parks Families.

Throwback: We were full of cheer at our Christmas Homecoming with the Pomeroy and Parks ancestors in attendance. The 1.66 acres that is Heritage Park and Museum was donated by the Pomeroy Family after their parents John and Gertrude passed away. The land was originally purchased by Edward Payson Pomeroy in 1901. Edward married Anna who was an immigrant from Austria. They married in Galveston, Texas and Mr. Pomeroy moved his family to Pasadena after the 1900 Hurricane. The museum and grounds were full of 5 generations of Pomeroy and Parks families. Enjoy these photos!

Dear Animal Lover Community,

My name is Aries and my girlfriend Athena got adopted. I miss her and her goofiness so much 💔.
We weren’t bonded, but we used to do everything together. We even got adopted together when we were puppies.
But we were brought back to the shelter because our owners got sick and were no longer able to take care of us.
I’m happy Athena got her second chance….but what about me? Is there a chance for me to have a happy ending too?
With a heavy heart,
Aries

Animal Shelter happy tails update on Ivy now Luna. One furry friend at a time.

Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐶
Our beautiful girl Ivy, now known as Luna, has changed her new family’s life for the better! Check out what they had to say:
“Luna is the kindest, most gentle, loving, snuggly, pup. She absolutely adores our girls and just truly loves each of us so much.
After losing our oldest pup just a few weeks prior to rescuing Luna, she is everything we needed in our lives.
Our dogs at home have taken to her so well. Our oldest pup is 14 and Luna will lay down on her back to play with her. Our other dog is 4 and is becoming a puppy again, playing with Luna! Watching them build a relationship and just take to each other so well has been amazing.
All in all, Luna has been the absolute best rescue. Our family is complete with her!”

A trio of love and rescue out of the Animal Shelter.

Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐶🐶🐱

Our 3 animals have brought a ton of love to our team member Emma’s life! Check out what she had to say:

“In 2019, I had adopted 2 dogs from Pasadena Animal Shelter. At the time, I was volunteering and had met Ralph (formerly Elijah) in May. I took him on a doggie date with a friend and instantly fell in love with him.

I was able to convince my grandparents to let me foster him and they said yes! Within a week, we all knew that he was special and that letting him go would be hard. My grandparents then agreed to let me adopt him.

After a few weeks we learned that Ralph had bad separation anxiety when left alone. We then came to an agreement to get him a puppy friend, this way he always has someone with him. In August, I did a meet with Ralph and Furnando and they LOVED each other!

Then in 2023, I had been working for the shelter and mentioned to a co-worker I wanted to adopt a kitten. They had then told me that we just got a beautiful gray kitten in. I met with him and knew I wanted to bring him home! I adopted him and named him Ghost! The moment he came home, Ralph and Furnando immediately took to him and would play with him like he was another dog.

3 animals and I wouldn’t have it any other way. They have all turned out to be wonderful and I couldn’t have asked for a better trio! Thank you for letting me show these babies what love means!”

If you got an unused large kennel the Animal Shelter has a big dog for it.

Calling all pet lovers! We do not have any available kennels for large dogs. We are over capacity and need your help. We’re in need of kennels for our larger-than-life dogs as a lot have been damaged by our furry friends, and we’re looking for amazing adopters and fosters!

🏠 By fostering, you provide a temporary home, and we’ll provide all the supplies, so you’ll have everything you need to be a superhero for a furry friend.

❤️ By adopting, your life will positively change just by opening your heart and home to a forever friend. Adoption fees are just $10, and that includes a lifetime of tail wags, purrs, and unconditional love.

I’ve been patiently waiting at the shelter but I still haven’t found a home…
Though my spirits have dimmed like the Christmas lights…the holiday season has left love in my heart for someone like you…
But time is not on my side….the shelter is still being repaired and there is limited space….
Can you help me find an adopter, foster, or rescue? You’re my last hope for my wish to come true…
With a Heavy Heart,

We have found your forever friend. Meet Ray, the 50 pound playful and curious foster dog.

Foster Highlight!

RAY
A166343- neutered, UTD on shots, Heartworm negative, 50 pounds.
Ray is currently at the shelter temporarily (Foster is on vacation) but is looking for a forever home or rescue.
Ray is playful and curious in the foster home. He loves toys and shares a home with two other dogs (one male and one female) although it seems he enjoys the company of the female more.
He is potty trained and sleeps quietly in his crate at night. He walks well on a leash. When he comes into the shelter, he is extremely stressed, spending most of his kennel time barking, jumping and spinning so we are looking for alternative avenues to find Ray a forever home.

Rocky Howlboa has had championship training by Lucky Family Dog waiting on you to go fill out his adoption papers.

 Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐶

Our handsome boy Rocky Howlboa has been working hard with the amazing trainers at Lucky Family Dog to prepare for his forever home. Check out what they had say:
“Rocky is really smart and he would make a great addition to a home! He has been learning proper socialization, boundaries, and overall obedience. This includes controlling himself around food, staying calm, and getting along with cats.
He also comes from a family tree of Mountain Curs who are typically known for being loyal and an overall balanced dog. He is also super healthy and all his check-ups are up to date.”
Interested in adopting Rocky? Contact us today! Lucky Family Dog will cover the adoption fees and will offer free dog training!

Barbie & Ken Find were returned due to an irresponsible adopter and now back in the pokey. Help if you can cash the check.

URGENT: BARBIE & KEN ARE BACK IN THE SHELTER 💔
These sweet pups were returned at no fault of their own. Their previous adopter was not able to physically accommodate 2 large dogs.
But space is limited for them because our shelter is still being repaired…
They are bot people friendly and appear to be potty trained.
Though we would normally recommend separating them, the hope is to find them a home together (we may consider separate homes to experienced adopters/fosters).
Can you be the hero Barbie and Ken desperately need? You’re their last chance at a happy ending…

*Adoption fees are only $5*

Please email [email protected] for more information, to place a rescue or foster hold, or if you have any questions. We provide fosters all supplies needed to care for the animal.

Good news out of the Animal Shelter and the journey of MJ from Wonder to beloved family member.

Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐶

Our beautiful girl Wonder, now named MJ, has changed her new family’s life for the better! Check out what they had to say:
“As my mother neared her death, I felt very anxious about what life would be like when she passed. I decided that I would finally adopt a dog.
I had seen Wonder, now known as MJ, on my Facebook feed and had fallen in love with her. She was exactly the dog I always thought I would have. My boyfriend, however, wasn’t too set on her. In fact, she didn’t make his short list because he said she was part Lab, and they can be a handful.
When we met MJ, it was as if she knew she had to win over my boyfriend because she showered him with kisses. Then, she walked over to me, gave me her paw, and laid at my feet. It was pretty clear that she was the one. We took her home that day.
Two months later, we got a kitten and named him Venom. MJ and Venom have been best of friends. When MJ has bad dreams, Venom goes to check on her. When Venom coughs up hairballs, MJ runs to check on him. They both gave me a reason to function when the world felt so sad.
Since adopting MJ, she’s spent some time with the amazing trainers at Tail To Tail Training to help her through her big feelings. She got to attend the celebration after my boyfriend and I got married. She’s been to work with me a few times and has a vast collection of toys from her
BarkBox. And of course, there’s been pup cups, lots of them.
Thank you so much for helping us come together with our beautiful, sweet MJ. Our life certainly wouldn’t be the same without her. We love her so, so much.”
