Seventeen dogs and cats now have a family to call their own, a cozy place to rest, and someone to love them every day. That’s 17 new beginnings worth celebrating!

Thank you to their adopters for opening your hearts and homes. Seeing our animals leave with their new families is the happy ending we hope for every one of them.

Still looking for your new best friend? All November long, adoption fees for all dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens are just $45 through our “Home for the Holidays and Always” special.

Help another happy tail begin.

You love your dog. You’d just love walks with less pulling and greetings with fewer flying paws, too.

Our Fetching Good Manners group course helps you build those everyday skills together! With guidance from certified trainer Kiara Cordova, you’ll practice basic obedience using positive reinforcement and learn how to keep making progress at home.

For $549, you’ll receive 7 group classes covering 15 essential life skills, training videos and resources, office hours support, and one make-up session.

Classes begin November 7 at Valley Animal Center, with weekly options at 9 AM, 11 AM, or 1 PM. New participants are welcome through November 14!

Ready for better manners and more enjoyable moments together? Comment “TRAINING” for the interest form link, and our trainer will follow up about availability and next steps.

Every clean kennel, fresh bowl of food, and comforting moment starts with someone who cares.

This Animal Shelter Appreciation Week, November 1–7, we’re celebrating our animal care staff and the love they give our dogs and cats every day. They learn each animal’s personality, build trust with those who are scared, and help make the wait for a forever home a little brighter.

Here’s a look at some of our staff in action! To our entire care team, including those not pictured, thank you for your patience, hard work, and heart. You make a difference in their lives long before adoption day.

Leave a thank-you in the comments to help us celebrate them!

For the animals waiting in our care, a home means more than a warm place to spend the holidays. It means belonging, feeling safe, and having someone to love through every season.

Thank you to 📍Fresno for letting us use their beautiful field. We appreciate your support and encourage everyone to give them a follow and check them out for a visit.

It's Adoptable Friday; meet 5 cats and 5 dogs waiting for that chance. A cozy place to sleep, a familiar voice, and a family who loves them would make their whole world change for the better.

Starting Sunday, November 1, ALL adoption fees will be just $45 throughout November at Valley Animal Center!

Look through their photos. Maybe the companion you’ve been hoping for is here, hoping for you, too.

Come meet them and help make this the month their wait ends and their new life begins.
