Pet Resources – Your Votes Are In!

Many thanks to everyone that participated in this poll. Here are your top picks in each category.

Local Shelters and Rescues:

The Animal Rescue Site focuses the power of the Internet on a specific need — providing food for some of the 27 million unwanted animals given to shelters in the U.S. every year. Over 10 million animals are put to death every year in the U.S. alone because they are abandoned and unwanted.

“Mutts & Moms rescues mixed breed dogs (mutts) and Moms with the occassional litter, taking them out of the shelters and into foster homes and boarding kennels, where they are groomed, cared for, and then adopted into loving homes.” 

“The Pasadena Humane Society & SPCA is an independent, private, non-profit organization dedicted to the welfare of our animal friends since 1903. Each year we care for more that 10,000 animals from the seven cities we serve: Pasadena, South Pasadena, San Marino, La Canada/Flintridge, Sierra Madre, Arcadia, and Glendale. Our Services include animal control, investigation of animal cruelty and neglect, licensing for La Canada and Arcadia, adoptions, pet behavior help and training classes, and humane education.” 

 
“Ruff Riders Rescue is a small, all-volunteer nonprofit organization committed to rescuing dogs, providing quality care to orphaned pets, and to promoting pets as life long family members. Our work is performed from our homes and at the Baldwin Park Shelter.”
