SPOT (Saving Pets One at a Time)

Animal rescue in Oceanside, CA

SPOT was created to fill the need to save animals who “fall through the cracks” in our sheltering system. Local shelters are overwhelmed—they receive so many strays and owner turn-ins that they run out of space and have to kill thousands of animals each year. The majority of these animals are healthy and simply need to be placed into a home. Others are medical cases which require some work, but do not have life-threatening diseases or injuries. And a few have some moderate behavior issues; we work with specialists to correct these behaviors before finding them their forever home. The bottom line is SPOT can save these lives.

Rescue FAQs

San Diego North County
SPOT (Saving Pets One at a Time) is a young, all-volunteer, grass roots organization formed in March of 2010 to save the lives of dogs and cats. We operate from Oceanside, CA, and mainly rescue animals from local San Diego shelters but due to the extreme need that the slowed economy has caused, we have been rescuing from all over Southern California.

Additional adoption info

SPOT adopts puppies less than 1 year- $450, dogs 1-8 yr- $300, 9 yr- $200.
We ask you to complete an adoption application. A home check will be scheduled to be sure there are no inadvertent dangers in your home or yard. A meet and greet will be arranged so that your whole family can meet your new pet before adopting him/her. We want to make sure it is a good fit since it is a commitment for the animal’s lifetime.
