Pasadena Animal Shelter
Pasadena Animal Shelter is a public, open-admissions shelter that assists more than 7,000 animals every year. To find your new best friend, please visit us at 5150 Burke Road, Pasadena, TX. #adoptdontshop #rescue
At Pasadena Animal Shelter, we care about people and pets. In fact, we assist more than 7,000 animals annually. So if you need us, or if you know of an animal that needs us, help is just a phone call away at 281-991-0602.
As a function of the Pasadena Public Health Department, preventing the spread of disease is our number one mission. But we strive to achieve so much more. Our goal is to ensure that every pet we encounter stays in--or finds-- a loving home. Educating pet owners and potential pet owners ensures that loving home lasts for the lifetime of the cat or dog.
Being a pet owner is a serious responsibility. Pet owners need to provide regular veterinary care, shelter, opportunities for exercise, quality food, mental stimulation, routine vaccinations, training, city licenses, and more. Sure, it seems like a lot. But really? It's a small price to pay for unconditional love.
To view all of our adoptable dogs and cats, please visit www.petharbor.com, and use zip code 77504 to locate our shelter. We have more than 200 pets currently in our care, many of which are not showcased on Facebook. We also spotlight pets on Twitter (@PetsPasadenaTX) and Instagram (@petspasadenatx).
Note, this page is primarily administered by volunteers. For questions or animal control issues, please call our dispatch office at 281-991-0602.
Our Cats and Kittens have their own page please visit it and "Like" and "Share" the page to help us find homes for them as well. www.facebook.com/pages/Pasadena-Shelter-Cats/1409379516001864

Simon needs someone—anyone—to SEE him. He’s a good boy who gallops like a horse in the play yards and wags with joy whenever someone so much as looks at him.
Simon hasn’t had any interest in the months he’s been with us. With the shelter being so full, he needs a hero. Show up. Ask to see Simon. Open your home for a week and let him decompress and stretch his long legs.
Simon deserves a chance.

How is a dog this handsome and sweet still in need of a home?
Ladies man Falcon has been waiting for months for someone to choose him. 😢 He’s had a short break from the shelter, but that’s almost over, and we’re still dealing with the space crisis, so there’s really nowhere for Falcon to go. We need your help.
Falcon is relatively calm and eager to be someone’s best friend. He’s not a Velcro dog, but he’s prone to checking in and letting you know he loves you. ❤️🩹 He appreciates snuggling in blankets and being at your side. Falcon seems fine with other dogs, though he’s not much for playing.
Will you please give Falcon a chance? Please? He needs and deserves it.
To meet Falcon, please call 713-920-7942 or send an email to adoptions@pasadenatx.gov as we will need to arrange for the foster to bring him up to the Adoption Center.

Happy National Dog Day! To celebrate all things canine and fabulous, we’re featuring one of our hunkiest pups: Cullen!
Cullen is good with people and other dogs. ❤️ He loves socializing with everyone—whether you have two legs or four legs—he’s ready to be your friend. And wow, does this boy know how to work the play yard! He’s available for foster or adoption. Cullen is also eligible for transport—if we can find him a foster.
Visit or apply online for Cullen (A155391).

Meet Scott. He supports normalizing human names for dogs.
Scott is an absolute sweetheart, beloved by staff and volunteers alike. He’s listed as a Belgian Malnois mix, but he definitely seems to have some Chesapeake Bay Retriever in his DNA. Scott is around two years old, and so over living in the shelter. He’s been here for more than a month already, which is hard to believe for all those who’ve met him. Please come visit today and ask for Scott!

Dreams come true, thanks to you. ❤️
Ryder, the sweetest, gentlest, most loving Husky, found a family today. He was so overjoyed, he insisted on sitting in his new mom’s lap. Just look at that smile! He knows he’s found a forever home.
Thank you so for adopting! Please keep him safe and love him unconditionally, as he will you.
Congratulations! Many happy “tails” to you!

Pope (A155100) has three big strikes. He’s an old, black dog, who’s heartworm positive. Nobody wants him. Nobody has even asked to meet him. How can we keep telling him that somethings I’ll change? That he’ll once again be loved and free to run and play.
Our shelter is totally full, so we need immediate help for dogs like Pope. He’s been waiting for nearly 60 days without interest. These photos show his last nice memory, when he was able to leave the shelter and participate in the Shelter Dog Olympics splash event at Rummy’s Beach Club. Pope really enjoyed wading in the water, but more than anything, he enjoyed being with people. In fact, he spent most of his time laying his head on staff or trying to cuddle with them.
Pope has gotten along well with some dogs, and potentially could go to a home with another dog (likely a mellow, smaller female).
Please help this guy. He’s been here nearly 60 days, and he’s had ZERO INTEREST. He loves people so much. Pope is a six-year-old Greyhound-Lab mix. He’s fairly small, weighing ~35 pounds.
Dogs come vaccinated, fixed, and microchipped. It’s just $25 to adopt. We also offer a highly subsidized heartworm treatment. You can view available animals by visiting www.pasadenashelter.petfinder.com. But please come visit us!

Love me?
Even though Stella suffered at the hands of people in the past, she’s still desperate for approval and attention. Now she’s soaking up the love from employees at the shelter, but she truly deserves a home of her own. Stella is a fawn Pittie mix who’s just a year old.
By shelter standards, Stella is relatively new (she arrived 7.21.21). Let’s keep her stay short. Come meet Stella at our Adoption Center.
All dogs will be vaccinated, fixed, and microchipped for their forever families. Their adoption fee is just $25.
