We began as a mobile adoption unit for a local humane society and then realized we could help even more dogs and cats in need if we became a 501 (c)(3). FLA Rescue was formed. Over the years, we have met incredible individuals and families who have opened their hearts and homes to hundreds of dogs and cats in need of love and a fresh start. We love it when we get updates - from pictures to visits in-person - from past adopters and adoptees. We believe that people who adopt dogs and cats in need are truly special individuals. We feel lucky to volunteer our time for animals and help people like you find a dog or cat who will bring joy to your life.
Create an alert, and we'll notify you every time a new pet comes in who meets your criteria.

For the Love of Animals Dog and Cat Rescue was formed to sponsor dogs and cats in need from shelters and private residences throughout Southern California. This sponsorship includes: providing funds to medicate and board sick dogs and cats at veterinary hospitals; increasing permanent adoptions; and raising awareness about the humane and responsible treatment of companion animals during these adoption events.
For almost 15 years, our goal has been to make a difference in the lives of dogs and cats in need. In return, these dogs and cats and the wonderful people who adopt have made an imprint on our hearts.
Additional adoption info
When you visit FLA at an adoption event, you will see many dogs and cats in need of adoption. We work with all breeds and all ages. Our goal is to match person to pet in a way that compliments temperaments and lifestyles. Here is a brief breakdown of what to expect from our adoption process:
a. Talk with an FLA representative about a dog or cat.
b. Fill out a simple, one-page application form.
c. Agree to a home check.
d. Fill out adoption paperwork, print an ID tag and
take your new family member home!
Once you have adopted from FLA, we remain a support system for you. We are here to answer any questions you may have as you bring your new dog or cat into your home.
