Serving San Diego County since 1880, the San Diego Humane Society and SPCA’s scope of social responsibility goes beyond adopting animals. The Humane Society offers San Diegans a wide range of programs and services that strengthen the human-animal bond, prevent cruelty/neglect, provide medical care and educate the community on the humane treatment of animals.

As one of San Diego’s oldest nonprofit organizations, the Humane Society has campuses in both San Diego and Oceanside, as well as an adoption center inside the El Cajon Petco store. The Humane Society is supported. solely through contributions, grants, bequests, investments, proceeds from the Muttique retail store, and small fees for services.

For your privacy, the Humane Society does not sell, rent, lend or exchange its mailing or contributor lists. The only way your email address could ever be used for a purpose other than what you intended is if you choose to opt-in to a service by providing your explicit consent.

“We adopted Milo, a Pug/Chow Chow

mix in 2008 from the Central Campus

and he has been the smartest, most

loving dog we’ve ever had. He loves

to go everywhere we go, including our

office. He goes to work every day. Milo

even has his own tie for the office, but

usually wears a simple bandana for a

more casual look!

He was a groomsman in my son’s

wedding last year and even danced with guests at the reception.

He is “the boss” like all the staff at the office like to call him and

he loves every minute of it. He is my inspiration and gives me

more joy then anyone could ever imagine!”

The Gupta Family

“My husband and I discussed it

beforehand, and knew that we wanted

a senior cat over the age of 10. I went

to the San Diego Humane Society and

viewed the seniors and knew that we

wanted a female. Sia put her head in

my hand and I pretty much knew she

was the one.

Sia is a 14-year-old cat who at times

has no idea how old she is. She loves being brushed and loves her

bed. She is a beautiful little lady and we just could not imagine life

without her. I strongly encourage others to adopt a “senior” as they

have so much life and love to give.”

Gina (Humane Society Volunteer)

Imagine for a moment that, one day, you unexpectedly lost your job or your

home. What would you do if you suddenly didn’t know how you were going to

feed yourself, not to mention your pets? If the extra expenses of cat litter or

medication seemed impossible? And then the biggest unplanned pet expense of

all—veterinary care. We don’t want anyone to have to face these difficult decisions.

That’s why one of our most important community programs is Project KEPPT –

Keeping Every Person and Pet Together. It’s a vital lifeline to qualified pet owners

who are faced with a temporary, or long-term, hardship.

Project KEPPT offers a companion animal food and supply bank to families in

addition to free or reduced fee spay and neuter services, licensing, microchipping,

behavior and training assistance, animal-friendly housing referrals, and veterinary

assistance referrals. In the past year we’ve greatly expanded this program so we can

help even more families stay together and we’re putting an huge effort into expanding

this program even further in 2014. Pets belong in homes with the families that love

them. We want to be sure they’re able to stay in those homes.

This year, the San Diego Humane Society has expanded its mission to keep pets

in their homes by launching the CARE program—our “Companion Animal Rescue

Effort”—which assists qualified families facing pet relinquishment with emergency

veterinary care to assist them to keep their pets. It’s all just part of Project KEPPT—

renewing hope, ensuring that animals have healthy food and supplies, and keeping

families together – all in a day’s work at Project KEPPT; and it’s your support that

makes this feasible.

As your local Humane Society, it’s our responsibility to be a resource for the pet

lovers in our community. And it’s our responsibility to make this the best place for

animals and the people who love them. Your support allows us to provide renewed

hope during difficult times. Thank you for giving all families a chance at staying

together.

Warmly,

Gary Weitzman, DVM, MPH, CAWA President and CEO

W E ’ V E G O T M A I L “My husband and

I adopted a blue

pit bull from the

San Diego Humane

Society last January.

Her name was

Peanut, but has

since changed post adoption to Charlee Boots (she has

all white paws).

She is the most friendly and lovable pup a family could

ever dream of. Everyone that comes across her falls in

love with her and her goofy personality. She isn’t the

most coordinated pooch, but she manages to chase the

ball and wrestle with her older sister Emma Rose. I’m

pretty sure she thinks she’s a little Bichon mix like her

sister since she lies on top of you to cuddle any chance

she gets.

My husband and I would like to thank you for saving

Charboots, and allowing us the opportunity to make her

a part of our family. We are truly blessed and absolutely

love having her in our family. We appreciate everything

you do for animals, and are thankful you gave Charlee

a second chance. ”

Julia & Adam

“Buddy and I just got back from

our road trip to Utah, Colorado

and Oregon and he loved every

bit of it. He got dirty when we

went camping and had fun. I’ve

had him for over a year now and

it seems like it hasn’t even been

six months, but I am so happy

with him. I will have to bring him

by to say hi soon.”

Becky & Buddy

“We adopted Edward in November 2012. We arrived with intentions of adopting a kitten

but after walking around, we noticed a sign on his kennel saying he had been there for

more than 100 days. After finding out that he had been adopted before and given up for

reasons we have yet to see, we had to have an interaction with him. As soon as he entered

the room we immediately fell in love and adopted him. We have 2 big dogs that absolutely

love their fur brother. He acts more like the dogs than a cat, he even comes running when

you call him. He has definitely made himself at home.”

SP TLIGHTP E T S I N T H E

The following pets are looking for new homes at the San Diego Humane Society and SPCA!

Teaching the Youth of Today to Shape a Compassionate Tomorrow

On the surface, our Youth Education Programs focus

on teaching children about animals and how to

interact with them safely and appropriately, which

are valuable lessons. But in teaching these skills, we’re also

helping children learn a much greater lesson – the importance

of respecting all living things.

Last year our Humane Education programs reached

more than 22,000 children, and their personal experiences

demonstrate the link between how people treat animals and

how they treat each other.

Children of all ages have the opportunity to enjoy and learn

about animals in a variety of ways:

Animal Adventure CampKids 5-13 years old spend their school breaks learning

about and interacting with our adoptable animals. Not

only do we offer week-long sessions during the spring and

summer, we offer one and two-day camps during school

holidays. Year-long opportunities for animal-loving kids!

Birthday PartiesWhat better place for a young animal lover to spend their

birthday than at the San Diego Humane Society? Children will enjoy

humane education-based games, crafts and at least three personal

animal experiences with the animal friends of their choice.

Tots and TalesAn interactive story-time program for toddlers, this

program offers stories, crafts, visits with animals and more.

Scout ProgramsGirl Scouts of all ages can earn requirements toward animal-

related Journey badges! We also have Scout programs that

address community service needs, as well as practice leadership

by working together for the sake of the animals. We will also

help Scouts achieve their Bronze, Silver and Gold awards.

Home-School ProgramsHome-school elementary aged students can join us for

California-Standards based programs. Combine fun and

education with our innovative lessons and hands-on teaching.

OutreachHumane, science and character lessons are taken directly

to schools four days a week. These lessons meet the California

Standards assisting teachers in meeting their classroom goals,

while educating students on proper care for the animals in

their homes and our community. We tailor programs

for all age groups with lessons focusing on issues

such as Dog Bite Prevention, Responsible Pet

Care, Careers with Animals, and more.

Visit www.sdhumane.org

for more information about

these programs.

s Patriotic PawsWe receive calls several times a week from frantic

military members who are faced with deployment or

relocation and are in need of options for their pets.

Through our new program, we are able to work with

military families to find foster programs and other

resources that are available to them nationwide. We

also host regular pre-deployment briefings so that

military can make plans for their pets long before they

are faced with deployment or relocation. Fortunately,

serving your country doesn’t mean you have to lose

your pet. For more information on this program,

contact Brianne Youngberg at 760-757-4357 x2021. s Barktoberfest was a Howling Success!199 dogs and puppies found loving homes during

National Adopt-a-Shelter Dog Month in October. We were

also happy to see people and their pets understand the

importance of pet identification with 307 microchips and

259 engraved name tags given away for FREE. October

wouldn’t be complete without a celebration of our pit bull

friends! The 2nd Annual Dare to Bull-ieve event honored

10 wonderful pit bull ambassadors in our community.

They were all winners, but Diesel was voted the “Best

Ambassador!” A special thanks to Phil Pace of Phil’s BBQ,

Arden Moore of Pet Life Radio, and our President, Dr.

Gary Weitzman, for judging this sweet and talented group

of pitties. Lastly, hats off to Perette Godwin of CW6 for

emceeing the event.

TRUST: Building a Compassionate SocietyTRUST (Teaching Respect Using Sympathy and

Training) is an after-school program designed to teach our

youth to have compassion and respect for all living things.

Throughout the program, students nurture and train

animals using positive reinforcement training methods.

The program also aims to empower participants to explore

careers in the animal welfare field, develop self-confidence

and identify ways they can contribute towards building

a more compassionate society. Each month-long session

concludes with a graduation ceremony, celebrating the

students’ dedication and success. Some students who have

completed the program return as “Junior Volunteers” in

order to help new participants and animals.

s Celebrating Pembrook’s New Life!You may recognize Pembrook because he was one

of our long-term animals featured in the “Pets in the

Spotlight” in the Summer 2013 issue of Animal Fare.

Pembrook spent about 10 months in our care, so

needless to say, we got to know him pretty well. His

rough and tumble play style and strong athletic build

made it challenging to find the right family fit. Our

Senior Trainers worked extensively on his excitable

behaviors, teaching him manners, tricks and much

more.

Joe (Pembrook’s new dad) met with Pembrook

several times to be sure he could give Pembrook the

type of home he needed, and adopted Pembrook just

before the 4th of July holiday. With a large house,

active playmate, dedicated family, and lots of acreage

to run, Joe offered the perfect home for Pembrook (now

Bentley)!

He now spends his days hiking, playing tug of

war and rough housing with his sister. Bentley is a

great example how time, love and attention can turn

a very active pup into a wonderful, thriving canine

companion!

BFF!The ability to form powerful connections with one another is not unique to humans…

The animals around us have

proven time and time again

that their capacity, even need,

for relationship can be every bit as

strong as ours.

After arriving to the San Diego

Humane Society, it did not take long for

Melody and Long Legs to become best

of friends. The staff at the San Diego

Humane Society even notated:

“Long Legs and Melody

do very well together in their

kennel… They lay intertwined on

their bed and if you take Melody

out and leave Long Legs in the

kennel, he begins to whine…”

It was clear that these two had

a very special connection. So it was

somewhat bittersweet when Long Legs

was adopted by a family in February

of 2012, and forced to leave his dear

friend behind. A couple of months later,

Melody was also adopted by a wonderful

family of her own, and it seemed clear

that theirs was a friendship destined to

be fleeting.

Then, about a year after adopting

Melody (renamed Zoe), her family

started visiting the San Diego Humane

Society again, this time looking for a

friend for her. But after meeting several

dogs, they just hadn’t been able to find

the right fit.

Meanwhile, it was with heavy hearts

that the family who had adopted Long

Legs (renamed Marley) also returned,

but for a very different reason. They

had fallen under hard times and were

forced to move, ultimately finding

themselves in an apartment that did

not allow pit bulls. After unsuccessfully

seeking out foster options, they finally

had to make the difficult decision to

bring Marley back to us.

Knowing the bond that these two

dogs shared, the staff at the San Diego

Humane Society knew just what to do.

They contacted Zoe’s family, who were

still looking for a new friend for Zoe,

and told them about Marley and the

doggies’ connection over a year prior

while in our care. They arrived to adopt

Marley within the hour.

It’s now been a couple of months

since the old friends were reunited and

they couldn’t be happier, according to

their family. These two special doggies

ultimately get to share far more than

friendship. They get to share a loving

family and home, as well.

A ll of us here at the San Diego Humane Society and SPCA

continue to be amazed by the multitude of ways our partners

in the community support our work. We would like to extend

a huge and heartfelt thank you to: California Coast Credit Union,

Paw Pleasers, The Golden Paw, The Patio on Lamont, Luv SD Surf,

Underground Elephant, Calibamboo.com and VCA Animal Hospitals.

Each of these companies recently participated in a two-week-long

food drive to help support Project KEPPT (Keeping Every Person and

Pet Together). This important program provides pet care supplies,

services and resources to people during times of hardship, so they can

keep their pets as part of the family instead of relinquishing them to

a local shelter. We are touched by the outpouring of support this food

drive received – the businesses collected more than two months worth

of pet food for our food bank! Every single one of these donations will

go towards helping people and their pets stay together. We are so

appreciative to all the companies and participants who helped make

this food drive such a success! Countless animal and human lives will

be impacted by your kindness, compassion and generous participation.

On their behalf, we offer sincere thanks.

Reaching Out,Renewing HopeHelp is at the Very Heart of Project KEPPT

“If not for the resources provided through Project KEPPT, I would have been forced to find another home for my cats who are my life.” – Nancy G.

Nancy G., a participant of Project KEPPT (Keeping Every Person and Pet Together), describes the program and its services as “…beyond words – a life-saving blessing and comfort.” The loving owner of four cats, one of whom is 15 years old and requires daily insulin for his diabetes, relies on the Project KEPPT Pet Food Banks and additional monthly services to help keep her family together.

Nancy is certainly not alone in

needing a little extra help to care for

her furry family. Over the past years,

most everyone has felt the impact of the

nation’s economic recession in one way or

another, and for many in our community,

maintaining economic stability remains

an ongoing battle.

When Christine R. was laid off

from her job and struggling to make

her mortgage payments, she found the

help and hope that she needed through

Project KEPPT’s support. Christine

states that she’d sooner deprive herself

of food and supplies than fail to provide

for her beloved pets – two dogs and two

birds. Thankfully, this program has

prevented her from needing to go down

that road. “It has enabled me to give my

pets the quality of food they require and

also be able to afford their additional

needs – flea medication, vet bills and

vaccinations. It was a blessing that a

friend told me about this.”

Such expressions of gratitude are

music to the ears of Project KEPPT’s

volunteers, who delight in the

opportunity to help fellow members of

the community during difficult times.

“Animals truly enrich people’s lives. The

bond between animals and humans can

provide so much joy to both. I hate the

thought of anyone having to give up a

pet due to financial hardship, and this

program aims to avoid that happening,”

says volunteer, Jolene S.

Sharing Jolene’s sentiments, volunteer

Clara adds, “As a pet owner, I know

how devastated I would be if I had to

give up my pets for some reason out

of my control, which is what program

participants often face. Seeing people’s

gratitude for the food banks, low-cost

vaccination clinics, and toys and treats

handed out during mobile drives is

always so rewarding.”

Project KEPPT consists of several

monthly Pet Food Banks, which

distribute food and pet supplies to its

participants and are often offered in

conjunction with licensing/vaccination

clinics at both San Diego Humane Society

locations. This program also participates

in numerous outreach efforts through its

community partnerships with other social

welfare organizations.

This year alone, Project KEPPT has

been able to assist more than 9,000 people

through its food banks, mobile events and

homeless outreach. This translates into

more than 11,000 animals impacted in our

community. These are pets of individuals

who want to provide them the very best,

but who are struggling under the weight

of financial hardship and just need a little

help to do so.

Help is what is at the very heart of

Project KEPPT. Whether it’s through

the direct care and shelter we offer the

homeless animals of our community,

the voice given to the voiceless through

our Humane Law Enforcement, or the

assistance we provide to community

members who need a little help keeping

their family together during financial

hardship; we are dedicated to helping

the animals of this community, and the

people who love them.

“The bond that is formed between

people and their pets is so important,

and by keeping people’s animals with

them, we are giving them hope that

their situation will improve,” says

Anyah Hoang, Project KEPPT Program

Manager. “Project KEPPT renews hope

for the people and animals we serve.”

Project KEPPT is in need of pet food to benefit animals and people in need! Donations of unopened dog or cat food can be made at the Admissions Desk at our Central Campus at 5500 Gaines Street in San Diego, or the main lobby of our North Campus, 572 Airport Road in Oceanside.

Can Giving Be Fun?

Have you ever purchased and wrapped the “perfect”

gift for your family or close friend and watched

with excitement as the person opens your gift?

You knew it would be a hit and you could hardly stand the

anticipation. Even though you were not the receiver, you

enjoyed giving the gift because you knew it was just what

the person needed and wanted.

A well planned charitable gift can bring happiness as

well. When you take the time to discover what the charitable

needs are and how you can structure your gift to do the most

good, you find yourself anticipating the actual gift. You know

it will be a hit.

The size of the gift is not what matters most. A gift

that matches a specific need and accomplishes something

worthwhile can be enormously rewarding. Think about how

many programs and services you can support and promote,

including the receiving and adoption of animals, education

outreach programs, animal cruelty investigations, Pet-

Assisted Therapy, and so much more.

You can fill out the form below or contact Nicole

Angelucci, our Director of Planned Giving to make your gift.

Nicole is an attorney with a background in estate planning

and is here to help answer your questions. Just give her a

call at (619) 243-3443 or email her at nangelucci@sdhumane.

org and she can help you have fun by making the perfect gift

for the San Diego Humane Society and you.
