Best Friends Super Adoption: Where groovy pets meet their people

Join us November 21-22 at Rose Bowl Stadium, and meet hundreds of adoptable dogs and cats of all sizes, types, and ages from Los Angeles-area animal rescue groups and shelters.

When you adopt a homeless pet from a shelter or rescue group in Los Angeles, you’re saving the life of a loving and loyal animal. And you’re making space for other pets to find families of their own. 

We need the public's help more than ever to make no-kill a reality. So together, let’s bring our best friends home and Save Them All.
