FOSTERING SAVES LIVES
We need your loving heart. There are many ways you can invest your time in saving these precious dogs lives; one of the most important is FOSTERING for a short term. There are no words that can express the pride you feel when you see one of our companions being carried to their forever loving home!

Through education, respect, trust, and unconditional love, we work everyday to create a world where humans and animals live together in harmony. We believe all life is precious!
OUR MOTTO
The Little Ones Animal Center finds the perfect family for each dog rather than the perfect dog for each family!.
ALL LIFE IS PRECIOUS!
SPECIAL DELIVERY
SPECIAL DELIVERY
Sometimes your perfect companion is waiting somewhere you haven't looked yet.
At The Little Ones Animal Center, we believe finding your next companion should be personal, compassionate and exciting. That's why we created Special Delivery!
Tell us about the dog you're hoping to welcome into your family. We'll learn about your lifestyle, home and preferences, then we go looking for them.
Our rescue team searches local shelters, rescue partners and Adopt a Pet, meeting dogs who may be the right match for your family.
A SPECIAL SERVICE FOR SENIORS
For seniors, visiting multiple shelters can be physically and emotionally difficult, especially after losing a beloved companion.
You don't have to do that part alone.
Let Sophia and The Little Ones team do the searching for you. We'll listen, search and help find a companion who may be the right fit.
AND IT'S WORKING!
Nearly half of the dogs we rescue are placed through Special Delivery and adopted before they are ever listed on our website.
We go find their family first.
READY FOR YOUR SPECIAL DELIVERY?
Call Sophia at 949-444-6930 to tell us what you're looking for and learn how Special Delivery works.
Your next best friend may already be waiting.
We just need to find them. 🐾
KEEP THEM HOME
Sometimes a family doesn't want to give up their beloved pet, they simply need a little help to keep them together.
Our Keep Them Home Program was created to help families facing difficult circumstances avoid having to surrender a cherished companion. Since 2020, we have helped more than 74 families and 157 pets stay together by providing assistance such as food, flea medication, vaccines, bedding, leashes and even dog strollers for elderly pet parents.
Because sometimes the best rescue is the one that never has to happen. 🐾
