At the Santa Cruz SPCA, we welcome all kinds of needy dogs and cats, including those who might be at risk in other shelters. That said, we have a finite amount of space within our four walls. Our foster care program is a great example of what providing more than shelter means to us. By opening their hearts and homes, our extraordin

He’s calm in the car, walking well with other dogs, and even loves beach adventures! At home, he loves cuddles, sunbathing, and starting the day with leg weaves for some morning T

This is Marvin. He’s a 53lb border collie mix with a big brain, fast feet, and zero chill (in the best way). At about a year old, he’s been putting that energy to good use - working on leash manners and showing off those amazing ✨automatic sits✨ like a true professional. Massive shoutout to Mikaela, our behavior specialist, for helping Marvin learn how to walk like a civilized gentleman (most of the time). If you’re looking for an active, smart adventure buddy (or someone to run the farm), Marvi

We need to find this 6 1/2-year-old Corgi/Cattle Dog a set of arms for good. It's time to shout about this four-legged burrito from the rooftops, spread the word among the long-and-low lovers, and encourage the kid-less, dog-less peeps to meet this fine fellow.
