Hope Starts Here.
Whether an animal is injured, abandoned, neglected, or simply in need of a loving home, we're ready to help.
Since 1867, we’ve shown up when animals needed us. They still do.

Meet Hercules!
Son of Zeus and demigod of the PSPCA, he is here to rule your heart! He loves playtime with his doggy pals, treats from us mortal humans, and hugs from his favorite people. After completing his 12 legendary tasks, he approached his final and most important task: finding a forever home. Come on in and meet our boy!
If you're interested in adopting , please come prepared with a valid photo ID, proof of address, and everyone in the home, including any resident dogs with their vaccination history.

Happy Home Alert
An update on Marco who I adopted last July: he just turned 16 and is doing great! His perfect day is sleeping on a big comfy blanket and looking forward to his next meal. He's been a wonderful addition to our home ❤️
