Are You Looking for the Paw-fect Companion? Meet These Precious Pups!

We are over halfway through Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, but there’s still time to meet the pup of your dreams! These dogs are available at our programs across the country, and they are all eager to be adopted. Learn all about these adorable canine companions!

By adopting a dog this month, you will also be participating in The Rescue Effect, our national campaign dedicated to helping animals in need find loving homes! By adopting or fostering a dog like these, you are helping to free up space and resources for shelters to help even more animals. Help one, help many — that’s The Rescue Effect.

If you don’t live near these areas, but you would still like to participate in Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, please consider adopting from your local shelter. You can also visit our friends at Animal Care Centers of NYC or the Los Angeles County’s Animal Care Centers.

If you aren’t ready for adoption, you can make a real impact as a foster parent! Fostering offers pets valuable time outside of the shelter, and it also opens up more space for animals in need. You can foster for the ASPCA in Columbus, Ohio, New York City, Los Angeles (cat fosters only) and Weaverville, North Carolina (dog fosters only). You may also be able to sign up to foster with your local shelter!
