🚨WE NEED HELP!🚨

The Palmdale shelter has the HIGHEST EUTHANASIA RATE out of all of the LA shelters, with dogs only getting an average of 10-14 days from intake before being euthanized. It’s a devastating situation, and while all shelters need more help (there’s always too many dogs and not enough time/volunteers/networkers/etc.), Palmdale is drowning in dogs and most of them aren’t making it out alive…

There is really only one person who is consistently networking the Palmdale animals, which is a Herculean-kind of impossible task, with occasional assistance from other networkers. This means that EVERY WEEK, dozens of new dogs never get posted, never get seen, never get advocated for, and never have even a CHANCE of leaving the shelter alive. 

YOU volunteering even just a few hours of your time can help give these dogs a chance of finding a home. YOU can help us shift the scales to give them a fighting chance. YOU can save real lives.

We need YOU. The dogs need YOU. 

💙 If interested, please DM @missionpawsibleUS and I will send you a guide I put together of everything you need to start networking. It has step-by-step instructions for every part of networking, and should make it easy for you to feel confident helping in whatever ways you can.

URGENT: CLEO 🩷 ID# A5210813

🐾SIAMESE SENIOR ON DEATH ROW🐾

🚨 72 HOURS NOTICE ISSUED 10/05/26🚨
*Cleo is at high risk for euthanasia at any time now*

Cleo: ID #A5210813
Age: 9 years old
Breed: DSH - Seal Point
Sex: Female (spayed)
Weight: 13 lbs
Intake date: 9/28/2026
Intake type: Owner surrender
Status: Ready to go home

📍 Location: Lancaster, ACC
5210 West Ave
Lancaster, CA 93536
Monday-Saturday 11 AM - 5 PM

📞: (661) 940-4191

Sweet Cleo was surrendered as a senior, and is now facing euthanasia for space after being there for only a few weeks unless someone can step up to help her ASAP 💔

She received the best behavioral score 🥹 and would love nothing more than to retire to a soft bed in a loving home where she never has to worry about being abandoned again 🩷

⭐️If you are interested in adopting⭐️

•The shelter only does in-person adoptions and will not hold a pet. 

•If you can’t immediately head to the shelter: Please email the shelter ASAP with “DO NOT EUTH” and the animal’s ID# in the subject line. Express your adoption interest in the body of the email along with your plans to come get them. Again there is no guarantee they will hold the animal‼️

⭐️If you are interested in adopting out of state⭐️ 

•You will either need to A) travel here to adopt in person (best option): in which case you’d be responsible for your own transport back home, or B) get involved with a local/reputable SoCal rescue who is willing & able to help pull the pet. Not all rescues will adopt out of state.

•Many rescues are full, and many are foster-based: meaning they need to have a foster ready to take the pet even if it’s just temporary/for a few days until transport can arrive. Fosters are also in short supply, so while it’s definitely still possible to get help through a rescue: this process can sometimes take a while.

•Transport costs are almost ALWAYS covered by the adopter. Please be prepared to budget $1,000 for transport costs alone.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING & CARING 💚🐾 by @missionpawsibleus

Bella 🩷 #A5803636

Repost: @lancasteranimalslaco 

Almost eight years old. Surrendered with 3 other dogs for “moving”. Two of Bella’s siblings have found homes.

We’re so happy for them. But Bella lies sadly on the floor of her kennel, waiting for her second chance, and now she’s sick.

At 68 pounds, she’s a beautiful senior girl who should be recovering somewhere warm and comfortable, surrounded by people who love her. Instead, Bella is battling an upper respiratory infection, and it’s hard to recover in a kennel environment.. She needs a home where she can rest, and recover.

Her previous owner reported that she was friendly with large dogs, small dogs, kids and cats. During playgroup, Bella exchanged soft, friendly greetings with several dogs, calmly explored the yard, and frequently sought affection from the handlers. She was social and tolerant but did not play. Calm dogs recommended.

We’d love to see Bella curled up somewhere comfortable, getting spoiled, She’s almost 8 years old.

She’s already lost the home she knew, and now she’s sick.

Please share to find someone willing to open their home and heart to this senior girl.

She was approached by a Jindo mix and exchanged a soft greeting with him. She spent the first half of her time in the yard sitting against the fence with concerned eyes.

Look at these precious puppers! Please do what you can to help them! 

Life only just begun and this should not be their ending. 

Luigi’s the tan male #A5800494

He was easily leashed in kennel but is not leash trained and would not walk despite coaxing. He was easily carried to the catch pen. He was initially wary of the runner, keeping a few feet away. He became more confident with light coaxing and trust building, approaching the runner with a loose body to solicit affection while the collar was clasped around his neck easily. He timidly entered the yard with a low head and low tail. He tolerated several dogs coming up to greet him. He was overwhelmed easily and would almost roll onto his back in appeasement. He was much more comfortable with the handlers, approaching them readily for affection and reassurance. As time passed, he gained confidence and began exploring the yard. He was much more comfortable approaching the other dogs. He appeared playful at times and would chase after dogs who were running around the yard. He clearly lacked confidence as he would only run after them briefly before retreating away when they turned to engage him in play. He did chase around the yard a few times with a female collie, displaying a gentle/dainty play style. He is young and needs confidence building and further socialization. He will also need leash training. BEHAVIORALLY OK FOR PUBLIC ADOPTION, CALM DOGS (REC), MEDIUM ENERGY

Crew is an 8- to 9-month-old unneutered tricolor Australian Cattle Dog mix currently listed as rescue-only at the Palmdale Animal Care Center in California. [1, 2]

Key Details About Crew

Animal ID: #A5803375 [1]

Breed & Color: Australian Cattle Dog mix, tricolor [1]

Age & Weight: Approximately 8 to 9 months old, weighing 51 pounds [1]

Intake Date: September 29, 2026 [1]

Status & Requirements: Designated as Rescue Only with a requirement that a crate is required for release; noted as okay with large dogs and having medium energy levels. [1]

Behavior Notes: Shelter documentation notes handling sensitivity—he has shown fear and stress (such as pancaking, flinching, stress panting, and slow mouthing/biting with a gloved hand when touched around the head and rear paws), leading to the rescue-only designation. [1]

Lou (Animal ID: #A5803376) is a 9-month-old tan Australian Cattle Dog mix currently held at the Palmdale Animal Care Center in Los Angeles County, CA. [1, 2, 3]

Lou's Profile Details

Breed: Australian Cattle Dog / Queensland Heeler mix [1, 2]

Age & Weight: ~8 to 9 months old; weighs 41 lbs [1, 2, 3]

Color & Sex: Tan; intact male [1, 2]

Intake Date: September 29, 2026, surrendered by his family alongside another dog named Crew (#A5803375). [1]

Behavior Assessment: Evaluated as having medium energy. He is noted to do well around calm dogs but requires further assessment for smaller animals. He was given a training recommendation for "B-Mod Handling" (Behavior Modification) due to shelter stress/fear. [1, 2]

Current Status & Urgent Alert

Lou was given a 72-hour notice that expired on October 9, meaning he became highly vulnerable to euthanasia starting October 10 due to severe shelter overcrowding. Local networkers note that he is highly terrified in the shelter environment. taken in Palmdale Animal Care Center by @missionpawsibleus

Current Status & Urgent Alert

Lou was given a 72-hour notice that expired on October 9, meaning he became highly vulnerable to euthanasia starting October 10 due to severe shelter overcrowding. Local networkers note that he is highly terrified in the shelter environment. Because of his fear-based behavior and handling sensitivities, he is listed as Rescue Only, meaning a public adoption cannot take place directly—an approved 501(c)(3) rescue organization must step in to "pull" him from the facility. [1, 2, 3, 4]

How to Help or Inquire

If you are a rescue organization or can network Lou to one, contact the shelter immediately with his ID number: A5803376. [1]
