Adoption Forms Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐱
Frodo, previously named Jenna, has made quite the impression on her new family! Check out what they had to say:
“Frodo is so sweet! She loves to nap at the foot of the bed or on the back of the couch. She gets along great with our other kitty, Bowser (she is also adopted from the Pasadena Animal Shelter in 2023!), and is beginning to come out of her shell and play! She does have one strange habit – drinking from the toilet! My family and I are so happy we adopted her and that she fits right in!”

But she’s on the Urgent List and is running out of time…can you save her?

🥺 Does an old guy like me deserve a second chance?
My name is Rufus. I’m a gentle soul with thinning fur, and eyes that have seen more than most. I’ve lost some of my coat, probably allergies, and I’m heartworm positive… but treatment is available if someone is willing to fight for me.
I was once someone’s dog. I had a place. A name. Now I struggle in the shelter and listen to the younger ones leave before me. I try to stay hopeful, but each day gets a little quieter. A little colder.
They tell me I’m calm. That I’m sweet. That I still have so much love left to give. But I’m on the Urgent List 🚨 and my time is almost up…If you’re reading this, please… don’t let this be how my story ends.

📸 We told our senior girl to say “cheese”… and this was the look she gave us!
Ellie has gentle eyes, a heart full of love, and the sweetest face you’ll ever meet. Arthritis may slow her down, but it doesn’t stop her from soaking up affection and dreaming of a soft bed and a quiet home.
She’ll need a full veterinary work-up to help her feel her very best, along with someone patient and kind to help her settle in.
But Ellie is on the Urgent List 🚨, and time is running out. If slow strolls, warm cuddles, and soulful companionship sound like your kind of life, Ellie’s ready to meet you.

No one came for me….💔
Not when I was rescued from that crowded house in April. Not when I arrived at the shelter, scared and silent. Not when I sat in the back of my kennel, hoping someone might stop and see me.
My name is Jeff. I’m a survivor of a hoarding case. There were too many of us, not enough space, not enough love, but it was the only life I knew.
Now I’m here. And it’s louder. Scarier. I try to be brave, but most days, I just tuck my tail and wait. I’m sweet. I’m potty trained. I just want a chance.
But I’m on the Urgent List now 🚨. Please… if you’re reading this, don’t scroll past me. I just want to know what it feels like to be loved…before it’s too late.

Hi, I’m Ranger and I tuck my tail because I’m scared 💔.
I’m a sweet boy with energy to burn and a mind that loves to work. But inside my kennel, I’m starting to break down. I pace. I bark. I don’t know what to do with myself.
But outside? I come alive. I’m smart, playful, and ready for adventure. I just need someone who sees past my stress and understands a dog like me.
But I’m on the Urgent List 🚨 and time’s running out. Please help me find a second chance, so I can be the dog I was meant to be…

Meet today’s Foster Features: Baird & Salt! 🐾
These two are thriving in foster care — and while they’re not bonded, they’ve both made a big impression in their own unique ways.
🐶 Baird is the definition of calm and comforting.
He spends most of his day relaxing, watching the world go by from the window, or catching up on naps. He enjoys gentle affection, especially little forehead pats, and is happiest when he can be close to his person. His crate is his quiet retreat, where he’ll sometimes go to recharge when he’s feeling more introverted.
Though laid-back, Baird still enjoys playful moments with the younger dogs in the home. He’s very well-mannered around people and would be a wonderful emotional support companion. His foster is still learning about his behavior around children, but so far, he seems like a genuinely sweet and adaptable dog.
🐶 Salt, affectionately known as Sal, is a young pup with a bright spirit.
He’s doing great with other dogs, is full of energy, and is currently working on crate training and basic cues. He’s eager to learn and be part of a home where he can continue to grow. While you’re working from home, Salt is happy to quietly entertain himself nearby — whether playing with toys or curling up for a nap. He’s the kind of companion who just wants to be close.
Both Baird and Salt are available for adoption (individually) and would love to find a home where they can feel safe, loved, and part of the family.

Hi, I’m Jeff… and I’m a survivor of a hoarding case 💔.
Back in April, they took me from a home with too many of us. The woman meant well… she just wanted to help. But there were too many of us, and not enough space.
Now I’m in a shelter. It’s loud. It’s scary. I’m still trying to be brave. They tell me I’m sweet and potty trained. I never asked for much, just a quiet place, a kind hand, and a little love.
But time is running out and I’m on the Urgent List 🚨. Please… if you have space in your heart, could you be the one to save me?
– Jeff

Silvia’s family never came back for her 💔
Silvia was adopted in late 2023. We thought it was her happy ending. But last month, she showed up as a stray, alone and confused. We tried everything to reach her adopter. No one ever answered.
Her finders say she’s sweet, gentle, and wonderful with kids. She’s potty- and kennel-trained, and she used to do well in doggy playgroups, she just needs calm companions like her.
Now Silvia sits quietly in her kennel, waiting again… but this time, time is running out. She’s on the Urgent List 🚨. Please don’t let this be how her story ends. She deserves so much more…

URGENT: Walter Needs a Miracle 💔
Walter came to us broken—his skin raw from a very bad skin infection, his eyes clouded with gunk and pain. We’re doing all we can to take care of him, but he needs a home and continued care out of the shelter to heal.
Walter is gentle, sweet, and just wants a a second chance. But he’s on the Urgent List 🚨 and time is running out…

How cute is this face? 😍
Dutchess is a sweet, medium-sized girl with so much love to give. She was recently adopted but unfortunately had to come back after a conflict with the adopter’s other dog. No one was hurt, but it was clear she’d do best as the only pet in the home.
Since her return, Dutchess has been struggling. The stress of the kennel is starting to take its toll, and we can see the worry in her eyes. She’s on the Urgent List 🚨, and her time is running short.
But Dutchess is so much more than her past. She doesn’t need perfect—just someone willing to see her, choose her, and give her a real shot. Can you be that person?

My name is Frankie… and no one has come for me. 💔
I’ve been here for over 60 days, watching other dogs leave with wagging tails… while I stay behind, still waiting. Still hoping.
I try to be brave. I still greet people with soft eyes and a wag. I’m gentle, I love to play, and I get along with other dogs. I have so much love to give…
But I’m on the 🚨 Urgent List 🚨 now and time is slipping away. I don’t want this to be the end of my story. Please… if you’re out there, I’m still here. I’m still waiting.

🚨 Rescue Plea for Oscar: he’s hurting in body and in spirit 🚨
He needs an FHO (femoral head ostectomy) surgery to relieve the pain, but stuck in a crowded shelter, all he can do is wait. And hope.
Through it all, Oscar remains gentle. He greets people with soft eyes and a quiet heart, never asking for much, just a chance to feel safe, to be loved, to heal.
But Oscar is now on the Urgent List 💔, and his time is running out. He doesn’t deserve to spend another day in pain. He deserves a soft bed, a kind hand, and a rescue willing to give him the second chance he’s still waiting for.
Please don’t let this be the end of his story…

🌟 Cutest face in the shelter? That’s gotta be ASTRO!
This sweet boy is all heart and just wants to be someone’s one-and-only. He prefers not to share his food or space with other pets but with people? He’s a total lovebug.
Astro has a few eye issues that may need a little ongoing care, but what he needs most is a calm, caring home to feel safe and finally rest.
⏳ But he’s on the Urgent List and time is running out.
If you’ve got room in your heart for one amazing dog, Astro’s ready to fill it!

Will you be my hero?

My name is Charles and I need a rescue to save me. 🖤
This place is loud, scary, and I’m not getting better here. I was found alone, with skin issues, and now I spend most of my days hiding. I’m overwhelmed and shut down, but I want to feel safe again.
I’m not ready for much handling yet, but I want to trust. I just need time, patience, and a quiet place to heal.
But I’m on the Urgent List and I’m running out of time…Please don’t let me be forgotten. I just need a chance. If you’re a rescue who can help me, or know one that can, please help me before it’s too late…

This sweet boy is all heart (with a side of Lab wiggles)! Shelter life has been a little too loud and overwhelming for Chip, but take him out for a walk, and you’ll see the magic start to happen. His tail loosens up, his eyes soften, and that lovable personality peeks through.
Chip just needs a calm, patient home where he can breathe, decompress, and feel safe. In return? You’ll get loyalty, love, and a forever best friend who’s ready to give you everything he’s got.
🚨 He’s on the Urgent List, so if you’ve been waiting for a sign… this is it. Come meet Chip today and help him shine!

Hi, I’m Rose, and I need your help to heal. 🌹
I’m a quiet, gentle soul with eyes that hurt and ears that itch. The vets say it’s pigmentary keratitis, corneal edema, and some infections but I’m on treatment now, and they say I’m getting better.
I don’t ask for much. A soft bed, a calm home, and someone who will love me through the healing. I’ve been through more than I can say, but I still have hope.
They tell me I’m sweet, mellow, and full of love. I just need someone to believe I’m worth saving because I’m on the Urgent List 🚨, and time is running out. Can you help me?
Love,
Rose

Thiago is hurting. 💔
His people never came back… and now he waits alone, day after day, with zero applications. He doesn’t understand why no one wants him.
Thiago is sweet, loyal, and full of love. But shelter life is breaking his spirit. He’s strong on leash, can jump fences, and needs someone patient, experienced, and kind. Someone who sees his potential, not just his past.
He’s not perfect. But he’s trying. And he’s so worth it. Please don’t let him be forgotten. Come meet Thiago before time runs out because he’s on the Urgent List…🚨

STAFF FAVORITE SPOTLIGHT: JACKSON! ⭐️
If you’re looking for a dog who’s well-mannered, playful, and hilarious, Jackson’s your guy. At 6 years old, he’s past the puppy phase but still has that bouncy boxer energy that keeps life fun!
Here’s what his previous foster had to say:
💬 “This dog has the BEST manners.”
💬 “He’s calm, but still playful. A total sweetheart.”
💬 “He LOVES kids, just better with ones 10+ because he doesn’t realize he’s a tank.”
💬 “Not a big barker! Just lets you know when someone’s at the door, then chills.”
💬 “He’s super smart: he knows ‘crate,’ ‘off,’ ‘down,’ ‘outside,’ and more!”
💬 “Crate-trained, house-trained, no aggression, and LOVES car rides.”
💬 “He even tries to join you in the shower, he’s a total water dog!”
Jackson does best with an active family and would thrive in a home where he can be part of the fun. Walks, beach days, road trips, he’s down for it all. Just give him a couple of weeks to settle in and you’ll have a lifelong buddy who’s equal parts snuggle bug and adventure pup.
⭐️ Adopt for $5 or foster for FREE. If you foster, food, a crate, and supplies are included. APPLY HERE: https://www.pasadenatx.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Adoption-and-Foster-Applications-10

Shoutout to our youngest heroes! 🐾🧡
Ms. Camfield’s 6th grade “Shelter Helpers” at Westbrook Intermediate have been hard at work turning donated fleece into the cutest, coziest no-sew blankets for our pets!
Thanks to their creativity and kindness, our dogs and cats now have a little extra comfort while they wait for forever homes. 🐶🐱
Big hearts come in small packages and these students proved it! We thank them for making a difference, one blanket at a time!
Crews completed emergency repairs on the SH 225 connector ramp to I-610 East Loop northbound much sooner than anticipated and opened the ramp yesterday afternoon. We thank the community for being patient as we made repairs to the ramp.

🏆 Drumroll, please… Cutest Ears Champion: FINN!
Finn’s the kind of pup who finds joy in everything: treats, toys, hugs, and just being around people. He’s a happy little guy with a heart full of love and some seriously award-worthy ears!
But the shelter is loud and a little scary for him right now. He’s shy, but sweet, and in the right home, his gentle, playful spirit will shine.
But Finn’s on the Urgent List 🚨, and time is running out. He just needs one chance… could it be with you?

💔 Joe’s still waiting for his owner… but no one ever came back.
It’s clear someone once loved Joe. He walks calmly on a leash. He leans in gently for affection. He looks at you like he’s searching for someone he lost.
But no one came. And now he’s behind kennel doors, growing more stressed by the day.
Outside the noise and chaos, Joe is soft, sweet, and full of love. He doesn’t ask for much, just a quiet place, a gentle hand, and someone who won’t give up on him this time.
🚨 Joe is now on the Urgent List. His time is running out. Please don’t let his story end like this. Be the one to show him that love can come back.

Adoption Forms 💔 Callie hides… because the world feels too loud.
She tucks herself away in corners, trying to disappear—too scared to ask for love, but quietly hoping someone sees her.
Callie is gentle. Soft. Sweet. She just doesn’t know how to be brave here. The shelter overwhelms her… and now, she’s on the Urgent List 🚨.
She doesn’t need much. Just a quiet home, a patient heart, and someone willing to let her come out of hiding on her own terms.
Please… if you’ve ever felt scared or small, you already understand her. Can you be the one to show her she’s safe?

🚒🔥 Cadets on the Move! 🔥🚒
This past Saturday, our current cadets in the academy took a big step in their journey to becoming Pasadena’s Bravest 💪👨🚒👩🚒
They spent the day visiting all of our stations — including the ones they may soon call home 🏠❤️. These station visits give them a chance to meet the crews, learn the layout, and get a feel for the day-to-day operations that keep our community safe! 🙌🚨
We’re proud of the dedication and heart our cadets are showing every step of the way. Keep pushing forward — your future stations are lucky to have you! 💯👏
🚨🚨We are so full of cats and kittens, and taking in more as you read this, that it feels like they’re falling from the sky! What does that mean for you? Fee-waived adoptions on any cat or kitten starting today through Saturday, May 24th! 🚨🚨
Or if you would like to foster, it’s free, and all supplies are included (as available). Please email [email protected] for information.

Hashbrown’s owners never came for him 😔.
Found wandering the streets, Hashbrown came to us wagging his tail and showing off his “sit” and “down” skills like a true gentleman.
Someone once taught him love… but no one ever came back for him. No chip. No claims. Just a sweet and smart boy who’s now on the Urgent List 🚨.
But time is quickly running out. Can you be Hashbrown’s second chance?

Meet today’s Foster Feature: Rem! 🐶
She has been a ✨ SUPERSTAR ✨ in her foster home. Check out what they said about her:
“I got Rem off of the urgent list with only a few hours to spare and I’m glad I did because she is truly a hidden gem. She’s incredibly sweet, affectionate, and loves nothing more than cuddling up for quiet evenings on the couch. Our nightly routine has become her favorite—just the two of us, unwinding together.
She has a huge heart and forms deep, loyal bonds with the people she trusts. Rem walks good on a leash, is treat-motivated, and eager to please—she’ll sit right away for a snack. I have three other dogs of different sizes and she does well with them. While she may need a little time to warm up, especially with new canine friends, slow introductions go a long way—and once she feels safe, she’s playful and full of joy.
She’s also been gentle and respectful with my 4-year-old grandson, understanding boundaries. People constantly stop to admire her, and it’s easy to see why. She’s such a beautiful girl and she’s already started the meds for her heartworm treatment. I’m excited to see her forever family discover just how special she truly is.”

Sky was hit by a car and now has an injured leg 💔.
This sweet pup was hit by a car and rushed to a vet by a kind stranger who made sure she got immediate care.
A recheck with our vet showed her leg was too infected to be re-splinted, but Sky is now healing with antibiotics, regular bandaging, and lots of love from our team.
🚨 But Sky is on the Urgent List and needs an adopter or rescue that will help her heal outside of the shelter. Could that be you?

Carmelo is as unique as his eyes 🤩.
He’s a handsome, people-loving pup who’s had a tough time adjusting to the shelter. After a month in foster, we learned he has some separation anxiety and gets vocal when left alone, especially at night. However, he settles down when crated near other dogs.
He’s social, dog-friendly, and needs some leash training. But overall, he just needs a patient person to show him love.
🚨 But he’s currently very stressed and on the Urgent List. He needs a hero, could it be you?

🚨 But she’s on the Urgent List, which means she needs out now. Whether you adopt, foster, or share, you could be the reason Gidget gets her happy ending. Come meet her and fall in love today!

Adoption Forms 💔 Maybe I’m meant to be in the shelter forever…
Hi, I’m Candace. I have so much love in my heart but the days are getting quieter, colder, and shorter here.
I have something called entropion, which makes my eyelids roll inward. It hurts sometimes, but I’m on medication and the kind people here are doing everything they can to help me feel better. I’ll need surgery soon… if I make it that far.
🚨 But they told me I’m on the Urgent List, and that means I don’t have much time left. Maybe you’re the one who can change my story. Maybe you’re my miracle. All I need is one chance. Please… don’t let my story end here.
With a Sad Heart,
Candace

Meet Tango, the dog whose grin could light up your whole week!
Tango’s been wondering when his person will finally walk through the door. He’s got a heart full of love, a gentle spirit, and a happy wagging tail that just won’t quit.

💔 Hi, I’m Venus and I miss my sister, Serena.
We weren’t bonded, but we were everything to each other: playmates, nap buddies, best friends. She got adopted. I watched her walk away with her new family. I was so happy for her, but now I’m alone.
And I’m scared. I’m on the Urgent List now 😔. My time is running out.I keep wondering… Don’t I deserve a second chance, too?
Someone to love me, like they loved her?
Please… don’t let me be forgotten.
With a Sad Heart,
Venus

😔 My name is Miguel and I was brought back because of a landlord.
I didn’t do anything wrong. One day I had a home, a bed, someone calling me “good boy”… and the next, I was back in this loud, lonely place.
I’m just a young pup who needs love, patience, and someone who understands that puppies need time to grow. I know a few commands, I’m learning to like my crate, and I’ll do just about anything for a treat.
They say I’d do best with an active family—someone who can help me be my best self.
But I’m on the Urgent List now, and time is running out 💔. Please don’t let this be the end of my story….
With A Sad Heart,
Miguel

But I’m on the Urgent List 😔, so if you’ve got room in your heart, I’d love nothing more than to be yours… forever. Can you save me?

🎉 From the shelter to happily ever after in Canada! 🇨🇦
Thanks to an amazing partnership with Three Little Pitties and the incredible dedication of foster rock star Erin, our sweet boy Hank (formerly Huck) found his forever home!
➡️ Check out what Erin had to say about Hank’s journey:
“While fostering Hank, formerly known as Huck, he needed entropion eye surgery. But the eye never healed properly so I had to take him to more doctor visits and get different opinions. He was put on two eye medications (a gel and some drops) which he would have needed for the rest of his life.
Ultimately, I talked with vets and Three Little Pitties and we decided it was best to get the eye removed. He didn’t have much vision in it anyways so we didn’t think removing the eye would hinder him from anything. He healed beautifully from that surgery and lived a great life after!
After having him a year and 4 months, he finally got adopted and made his way to Canada on Three Little Pitties bus. Now he lives as an only child to his young parents who recently got engaged and spoil the heck out of him.”

All Bane dreams of is a cozy couch, a human to protect, and a forever home where he can nap like a king. 👑
Think you’ve got room for 100+ pounds of loyalty and a cute squishy-face? Come meet him today!

😔 If you look deep in my eyes, you can see how much I’m struggling…
Hi, I’m Florence. They say I’m sweet and gentle, but shelter life is hard for me. The noise, the stress, the constant change… it’s a lot for a quiet soul like mine. I keep to myself, not because I don’t want love, but because I don’t know if it’s safe to hope anymore.
Beneath my shy shell is a heart full of love, waiting for someone who sees me. Someone patient. Someone kind. Someone who believes I’m worth it
💔 But I’m running out of time. I’m on the Urgent List now, and I don’t know how many more days I’ll get. Do you have room in your heart to save me? I promise I’ll love you forever.
With a Sad Heart,
Florence

Hi, I’m Brenda. I had a home once. They didn’t want to give me up, but life got hard. They tried everything but money ran out.
I came to the shelter hoping for another chance. But I’m struggling. It’s loud and lonely. And I miss feeling loved and safe.

Can you escape wonderland? 😊
Solve riddles, puzzles and “read the directions” and see if you are curious enough to make it out of Wonderland!
😔 Has anyone seen my family? I got lost one day and they never came back…
My name is Valencia. I try to be brave, but the shelter is loud and confusing. The barking, the cold floors, the constant noise — it makes my heart race.
But when I’m outside, it’s like I remember who I am again. I play. I listen. I get along with other dogs and I try my best to be gentle, even when I’m scared.
💔 But the people here say I’m running out of time. That I’m on something called the Urgent List. I don’t fully understand what that means, but I know it’s not good. I just need one person to believe I’m worth saving.
Please… if you have space in your home and your heart, will you come for me? I’m ready to love and to leave the fear behind.

Happy Tails Update! ❤️🐶
Macy, who was on the Urgent List, was saved and is living her best life with her new family! Check out what they had to say:
“We recently adopted Macy and were prepared to give her some time to decompress and adjust to her new home, but she came through the door ready to go! She is the sweetest girl you’ll ever meet with such a big personality. She’s so funny and smart it shocked us! She’s a very well-tempered and well-behaved girl who loves playtime, cuddles, baths, and naps!
Coming out of shelter life, she hardly knew anything (how to sit, jump up on things, stairs, her name, etc) but she’s so determined to overcome her obstacles and she’s working so hard! She got the stairs down in 24 hours and she consistently knows the command “sit”. Our first dog is her best friend and they love to play outside and cuddle on the couch! She’s so excited to have a dog bed, toys, and endless love! Still working on potty training, but she’s worth every clean up! We love our girl so much!”

💔 Hi, I’m Buttercup. I’m in the shelter because my owner died…
I never thought I’d be here. I had a home. A person who loved me. But then one day… they were gone. Forever. And no one came for me.
Now I’m here in the shelter. It’s loud. It’s scary sometimes. At first, I was too heartbroken but slowly I started to remember how to smile and how it feels to trust again.
But I’m on the Urgent List 😔. That means I’m running out of time…
I’m not asking for much — just a quiet place to rest my head, a human to love, and someone to help me feel safe again. Could that someone be you?

💔 Maryjane now hangs her head in her kennel because no one has shown any interest…
We’re heartbroken to see her this way. Maryjane is calm, gentle, loving, and easy-going. She’s the kind of dog who just wants to be near you and to share her love. She deserves so much more than this loneliness.
She’s also a medium-sized girl with a heart of gold, and yet, she’s been overlooked time and time again. She deserves a second chance at happiness, and a place where she can feel loved. But Maryjane is on the Urgent List 😔, and time is running out.
Could you be the one to make Maryjane happy again?

💔 No one came to save me… am I not good enough?
Everyone here at the shelter says I’m a good girl. I’m calm, loving, and a well-behaved medium-sized pup. I went on a doggie date and was gentle and friendly. I walk beautifully on a leash, get along with people and kids, and I’m peaceful around ducks.
But still… no one has chosen me. I keep getting overlooked, passed by, and left waiting.
I don’t know what I did wrong. Why does no one want to take me home? I’m still here, still hoping for someone to see me for who I really am.
But time is running out. I’m on the Urgent List 😔, and I don’t know how much longer I have.
Could you be the one to save me, and give me the home and love I’ve been waiting for?

😔 Maybe I’ll just lay here and hope that someone will notice me…
Maybe I’m just the puppy no one wants. Maybe I’m the puppy that doesn’t deserve a home.
I was returned because I was just a puppy, and my owner didn’t have time for me. All I ever wanted was to be loved, to have a family, but I’m starting to wonder if that’s something I’ll never have.
I’ve been here for so long now, and every day feels a little harder. I’m lonely. I’m sad. My heart aches more than I can explain. I’m a calm girl who loves pets and hugs, but no one seems to notice….
And now… I’m on the Urgent List 💔. Time is running out, and I’m starting to lose hope. I don’t know what I did wrong, but I don’t know how much longer I can keep waiting. Could you be the one to save me? Please… don’t let me fade away here.

Hi, I’m Ralph… and I’m struggling in my kennel. 💔
I’m a medium-sized boy, and the shelter is a little overwhelming for me. The noise, the unfamiliar faces—it makes me anxious. But when I’m outside? That’s when I feel my best. That’s when I shine.
I’m a loving dog with a heart full of potential, but I need time to adjust to new environments. What I need is a calm, understanding home where I can relax and gradually build my confidence.
Overall, I just want to feel safe and loved, and to show those exact things to a family. Could you be the one to give me that? I’m on the Urgent List, and time is running out… 😔 Please don’t let my chance slip away.
