Beethoven is a thoughtful boy that blossoms with a little patience and quickly becomes a loving and affectionate companion. He thrives on routine and enrichment, especially snuffle mats, tasty treats, and a good variety of chew bones—he’s very food-motivated and loves using his brain! Once settled, he enjoys being close to his people, relaxes well at home, and does great when left alone for a few hours. He’s generally easy to handle on leash, rides calmly in the car with a tasty Kong, and even adorably wiggles his paws while dreaming. He’d be a fantastic match for a home with a confident, playful dog who can help show him how fun the world can be. To meet Beethoven, visit the Best Friends Pet Adoption Center at 1845 Pontius Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90025. We're open daily from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm. You can also email us at adoptla@bestfriends.org. Please remember, pets cannot be held or reserved. Come by and see if he is the perfect match for you!

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
