Helping Another Rescue! Our friends at Whiskers and Tails Foundation — an amazing group with hearts full of ❤️ for animals — asked us to help spread the word! They have a few spots available for their low-cost spay and neuter mobile clinic event. This event is for cats only. Let’s help keep the kitties safe and out of harm’s way

Huge thanks to the amazing John and Cathy - longtime Pal Rescue pals - for throwing the ultimate barkday bash for their sweet girl’s Big 1 milestone!
Thank you again to for the awesome dog raffle goodies
We wagged, we laughed, we raised lots of money (and plenty of glasses!) under that gorgeous California sunshine at North End Bar.
A few Pal Rescue alumni joined the fun, making it always extra special!
Cheers to love, rescue, and puppy parties done right!

We had to say goodbye to our 2-legged Blake, our feistiest long-time resident of nearly four years. This little one didn’t have the easiest start in life, but oh, did she make up for it in her final years! She ruled her world with confidence (big barks), bossing around her playmates (both dogs and cats, no matter their size), sneaking treats, and proudly stealing toys from her big brother. And while she loved a good snuggle, it was always on her terms. Blake’s spirit was bold, her heart was bigger than she was… run free little one

Frankie was all head when he arrived, now he’s all Mr. Personality! Surrendered at just 2.4 pounds and not even 8 weeks old, he thrived with his foster mom and playmates… maybe a little too much! This tiny T-Rex was ready to take over the pack, but his Energizer Bunny energy was no match for the wisdom of the senior pack!
Now, he’s all fun and games with his big bully sister and all cuddles with his adoring pawrents. He even became a star when his mom took him to work. So happy and grateful that this little munchkin found his perfect furever home!

What an amazing welcome she must have received over the rainbow, at the pearly gates! Wednesday has earned her wings.
For over 13 years, she was a mama bear, a protective wolf, and a bestie to all - pups, dogs, sick ones, and pregnant mamas - who came and went through the rescue. One of those rare souls who touched so many lives. We will miss you forever, but forever in our 💔.

Samson and chunky Frankie have one Christmas wish: a forever home they can call their own! Could their wish come true this holiday season?

Fun times in the small city! A heartfelt thank you to everyone who stopped by with their adorable pets for the 2024 Tavern Annual Holiday Pet/Family Photos.
Paws up for cooler and doggy basket, a big shoutout to our Canadian friend of the rescue for the hockey tickets, and a big thank you to for hosting it again and JW Photography.
Wishing you all the happiest of holidays filled with love, health, laughters, and plenty of treats (for you and your furry friends)!

The countdown is on for the 2024 Tavern Annual Holiday Pet/Family Photos. It’s time to dust off that glorious ugly sweater, strap on your elf ears, and bring your furry (or feathered or scaled) friend(s).
Whether you’re posing with your dog, cat, parrot, or iguana, we promise this will be a picture worth framing.
We can’t wait to see our Pal alumni and meet new friends. So, grab your crew, bring the pets, and get ready for some merry mischief. 
Come on down, have a laugh, a drink or two (and support a great cause while you’re at it)

Georgia on my mind… we have been stalking that little gal ever since we saw her intake picture at the Carson shelter! Amazed (not in a good way) that she was found/dropped/dumped in this sorry state… as soon as we could, we picked her up.
It took a while for our “chief” to give her a much needed haircut and a much needed bath (skunk had nothing on her).
Despite of that, this little miss is the sweetest of all.
If you’re interested, we’re accepting applications for her - http://www.palrescue.org/application.html
Be kind always … it never hurts

One, two, three … this is how many times some dear friends and friends of the rescue adopted a three-legged dog! 
We’ve placed 9 tripod pups so far (and we even have a feisty 2-legged one who’s thriving at her foster mom’s, commanding respect from all her dog and cat playmates).
Delilah’s story is a bit tough. She was surrendered by someone going through a rough time, living on the streets. Thankfully, she’s got a clean bill of health from . Though her name means “delicate,” there’s nothing fragile about this girl—she’s been through a lot in her 4 years and come out stronger for it. Now, all fun and games (and lots of love) with her new pal and pawrents
