If your little one has been begging (and barking) for a pet, it might be time to consider welcoming a new furry friend into your family. Pets can not only teach your kiddo responsibility, they can also help build family bonds. With so many furry friends who need a home, consider the motto, “Adopt, Don’t Shop” as you begin the search for your family’s new best friend. Here are eight San Diego pet adoption centers filled with pets waiting for a family to call their own.

Second Chance Dog Rescue

These playful pups are all looking for a second chance at a loving home! While Second Chance Dog Rescue doesn’t have central shelter location open to the public, they do run dog adoption events every weekend at local pet stores. You can view all of the available dogs on their website, each profile complete with a detailed write-up and lots of adorable photos that will melt your heart! If you see a particular four-legged friend that you are interested in meeting, you can schedule a private meet-and-greet appointment at the foster-family’s earliest convenience. Or click on Events to see upcoming Dog Adoption Events.
