WAGS Pet Adoption shelters and cares for companion animals, investigates and combats animal cruelty, rescues neglected pets, treats sick and injured strays, and educates the community about humane issues and responsible pet care. As a non-profit animal shelter, we transfer in dogs and cats from public shelters where they are in danger of being euthanized due to space or financial limitations. We then provide them with the best possible care and enrichment until we can help them find their forever homes. For example, start a Facebook group for all the people who have adopted animals from your rescue.

Foster parents provide temporary care for our animals in their own homes until they are ready for adoption and to be placed in their permanent home. Some animals need as little as two weeks of care, while others may need care for several months.
Using Rehome by Adopt-a-Pet.com not only helps you to find a great new home for your dog, it also helps animal shelters and rescues in California to raise funds to save more pets. Rehome is free to you, and your dog’s new adopter will pay a small adoption fee which will then be donated in full to a local animal shelter or rescue, like the ones below. We are looking for committed volunteers with a love for animals to help us improve animal care and provide programs that are vital to a healthy community. Please consider becoming a volunteer in one of our six animal care centers. Your time and donations can mean all the difference.

Coming out of Covid the Mendocino County Animal Shelter's have been bombarded with animal owners that no longer want their pets. We work with outside shelters and rescue groups so these animals are given every chance possible at finding their furever homes. Our goal is to prevent the needless euthanasia of happy, healthy and adoptable animals.

Assuming they’re a good fit, have them sign a pet adoption form to cover your legal bases and confirm they understand that they’re taking ownership of the animal. Finally, release the animal into the owner’s custody. Below is a solid approach you can take to give your animals the best chance at finding their perfect forever home. It’s very similar to the approach for finding a foster, since fosters and owners will both care for a pet. Getting animals adopted is the guiding purpose of any rescue or shelter. Regardless of how animals make their way into your care — strays, owner surrenders, transfers from another rescue or shelter, etc. — you want to see them end up in a great forever home.
We are committed to helping the neediest, as well as the readily adoptable.

A volunteer, grassroots, non-profit organization, ARF’s mission is to rescue animals that have been abandoned, lost, or whose owners are no longer able to care for them. We provide foster care until forever homes are located.

Finding the right forever homes comes down to gauging potential owners and their fit with the animals. “They may seem cumbersome when you just want to focus on finding your animals a good home, but these legal devices are important. I need to know that the dog I release to an adopter will really take care of it, regardless of their own life situation.
Fosters are expected to care for one or more animals for anywhere between a week and a few months depending on the needs of the pet. Our fosters need to be able to bring in pets to our clinic during the week to receive routine vaccinations, preventatives, and exams as needed.
