Sparky and the Gang Animal Rescue
Sparky and the Gang is a not-for-profit charitable volunteer based organization working to rescue dogs from local pounds, the streets, and from unsuitable conditions, placing them in safe, loving homes.
Sparky and the Gang is a not for profit charitable volunteer based organization working to rescue dogs from local pounds, the streets and from unsuitable conditions, placing them in safe, loving homes. We also pull dogs off Los Angeles freeways and from areas in downtown Los Angeles and South Central. Our group is in Long Beach and we need fosters! All group members work on a volunteer basis and most have full-time jobs separate from this organization.
Volunteering and Donations
We are always in desperate need of foster homes, as our volunteers’ homes are overflowing with dogs. Foster homes allow our dogs to socialize and interact daily with people and other animals. They receive important training they need to find and fit into a great, loving home. Please call us if you are interested!
If you would like to donate supplies, we are always in need of any of the following items: DOG FOOD, dog beds, old blankets, sheets, towels, paper towels, dog treats, leashes, collars, dog crates, kennels or pet corrals (especially large and extra large), extra large water bowls, Advantage/Frontline and dog toys/balls.
To donate supplies or make a monetary donation, please contact Sherri at sparkyandthegang@yahoo.com.
The address listed is for correspondence and donations by mail. Please email us to meet any of our available pups.

Madison 5 pounds and 4 years old. Marshall is 3 pounds and 2 years old. Their owners moved and couldn’t keep them or Marshall’s mum. These boys are very energetic and playful so no young children nor anyone who can’t lift them. They are darling, cuddly and sweet. And they need love. #adoptdontshop #adoptingsaveslives #rescuedogsofinstagram #adorabledogsofinstagram #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #sparkyandthegang

Milo got a bath and bloodwork. He continues to eat and play in his foster house and on Friday he will be neutered because he is healthy enough now for that. 🎊🐾👏🐾He is gaining weight but slowly. We are deeply grateful that there is no underlying illness. He is just a happy and active dog making up for lost time. #greatpyreneesofinstagram #rescuedog #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #sparkyandthegang #spayandneuteryourpets

To be filed under “Where are they now?” and also “Who are they?” Quintessa, now Kiara, is living her best life with her adopted sister and doting mum. The Q litter, which lived at Casa Violeta before finding their homes, were street pups surrendered to #sparkyandthegang and turned out to be a very interesting mix. People ask us all the time what breed our puppies are and we always say, “splendid mixed with joy and the hard work of a village.” Well, we don’t always say that but we should. #adoptdontshop #fosteringsaveslives #chirescuepuppy #chiuahuasofinstagram #rescuedismyfavoritebreed @fluffydoggys

From homeless to 2 Moms, a trip Arizona, a big yard, and a new life. Remember when Graham needed a home and he was the last of the Shepherd mixes that were abandoned in Simi Valley? People thought he wasn’t a good pup to love because his back hips are a bit wonky (he has a normal, pain-free life, he’s just a bit wonky in back). But Barbie and Linda were like, he’s perfect. Big shout out to @megankerrlbc for stepping up to foster. We’re so happy for you Graham, go live your big and beautiful life! #adoptdontshop #fosteringsaveslives #rescuedog #rescueshepherdmix #rescuepuppiesofinstagram #sparkyandthegang

Hi, it’s me, Ronnie! I get that everyone loves a doodle, but can I just say, look at a me, the ten pound 2 year old chi also living at casa Ana. I am good with dogs, play time, and snuggles. I have lived with kids and if I take a little to warm up to strangers, once you prove you mean no harm, I’m yours for life. #adoptdontshop #fosteringsaveslives #fostermum #chiuahuasofinstagram #rescuechi #sparkyandthegang #imcute #pleaseadoptme

Hey guys, it’s me, the Fozzie pup! So the surgeon said I’d grown SO much that it my be possible to splint my paw or do a smaller procedure. So yesterday, Ana, of Casa Ana fame, took me to the rehab gurus at @beachanimalrehab where we will be doing physical therapy exercises for overall flexibility. Ana says we wait and see how the next couple of months go with my growing process then meet with the surgeon again down the line. Thanks to everyone at the sparky village for the love and support. For an abandoned pup with a bum leg, I really am a lucky fella! #sparkyandthegang #goldendoodlepuppy #rescuedoodle #adoptdontshop #fosteringsaveslives #doodlemix #whohasabumleg #iguessitsme

There was great fun, glamour, and puppy love all around at @hamburgermaryslb “Drag for Wags” fundraiser. And that was before the show started! #fearlessleader fit right in, the puppies had fun, and our volunteers helped out. But the glamour girls were the focus, even off-stage. #sparkyandthegang #fundraiser #thanksyoursupport #helpsdogsinneed #dragqueens #arekind #adoptdontshop #rescuepuppies

Ginger was rescued from an alley in TJ with 8 pups back in 2017. This little girl has since been living the good life in Las Vegas, and travels the country with her family in their RV.
Did you adopt one of Ginger's puppies? If so, please post a picture here. Her mama would love to see her pups!
