Charles, the Animal Shelter’s youngest hero, stole hearts with his selfless act on his birthday.

Meet Charles, our youngest hero! ⭐️🎉

This amazing 8-year-old celebrated his birthday in the most heartwarming way. Instead of gifts for himself, he asked his friends to bring donations for our shelter!

Charles showered us with various items and even donated $120 in cash. He also shared his leftover birthday cake with us and gifted us with an adorable picture stand for our furry friends.

Charles, you’re a true inspiration to us all! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, compassion, and selflessness. Let’s give a big round of applause for this incredible young hero!

Tater Tot is a favorite here at the shelter and he’s ready for his forever home! Check out what our team member Emma had to say about him:
“Tater Tot is my favorite shelter baby currently! He’s so sweet and loving! He did really well when he recently met some younger children!
He doesn’t quite know how to walk on a leash, but we’re working on it. If you walk away from him and kneel down, he’ll walk over to you! When he is in the play yard, he’ll get the zoomies and then likes to sniff the grass.
He also LOVES butt scratches! When you scratch his butt, he’ll turn his head around to lick your hand. He does slobber, but he’s an all-around good boy! He has not been dog tested yet, but I’m hoping we can do so soon!”

Adopted news is good news at the Animal Shelter.

Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐶🐱

Our sweet girls have changed their new family’s life for the better! Check out what they had to say:

“We brought home Sparkles, now Maple, earlier this year. Our first dog Eloise needed a friend so badly, so we came to the shelter during the $10 adoption event and fell in love with this soft, spunky little girl almost instantly.

She fits into our home like she’s always meant to be here, her and Eloise took to each other within the first few hours of Maple being home. She’s brought so much joy and happiness into our home in such a short amount of time, we really couldn’t think of a better dog for us and for Eloise.

The second update is from Bathilda, who we call Hilly and another plethora of names she doesn’t respond to because she’s miss independent who doesn’t need any humans telling her what to do, who we adopted during the free summer adoptions.

She’s the queen of this house hands down, she keeps the dogs in order and keeps them from bothering her older brother Susan. She’s so incredibly tiny but has so much personality packed into her tiny little 5-pound body.

They’re both such incredible pets who we love to the moon and back. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us two members of our family. We love you guys and your staff so incredibly much; you’re doing a hard job and do a lot for the community.”

Do you have a Happy Tail about your furry friend? We’d love to hear it. Just send us an email with the subject line “Happy Tail” to [email protected].

My name is Eddie and I need a miracle…💔
I’ve been patiently waiting at the shelter, but I still haven’t found a home…
I’m a playful puppy that gets along with other dogs, but I’ve been stressed in my kennel, so sometimes I get overstimulated and need additional direction and training…
But I promise to love you and be the bestest friend you’ve ever had…
Can you help me find an adopter, foster, or rescue that can give me a second chance?

With a heavy heart,
Eddie

The Animal Shelter’s Lilo inside. Stitch has moved on to greener pastures. Save Lilo.

 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

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!”

Jewel, the heartworm-positive Siberian Husky in the Animal Shelter, needs a loving home to recover and gain weight.

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,
Jewel

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.

Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐶
Our handsome boy Rocky has changed his new family’s life for the better. Check out what they had to say:
“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.”

She sleeps in the bed with us, and she demands several play sessions and scratch sessions daily. We joke that she’s done a better job of training us than we have her.”

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! ❤️

I won’t be a bother….I prefer a gentle approach and personal space….
All I need is one chance, but space is limited at the shelter, so time is running out….
Can you help me find an adopter, foster, or rescue that can help me?

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!

Aries lost his girlfriend due to an adoption. Good for her, not so much for hims. Hook a brother up.

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!”

Do you have a Happy Tail about your furry friend? We’d love to hear it. Just send us an email with the subject line “Happy Tail” to [email protected].

Adopt Bridget today before the freeze and you’ll have your lifer cuddle buddy.


This beautiful girl has manners, and she’s been working hard at our Fancy Footwork classes to prepare for her forever home.
Check out what our team had to say about her:
“Bridget is amazing on a leash. She held place, met 3 other dogs, and did well with 2 strangers.”
Interested in meeting Bridget? Contact us today. Adoption fees are only $10!

• Bridget: A156580 – 2 Years Old – Spayed – German Shepherd dog mix.
