San Diego Humane Society launches texting platform to help people find missing pets.
Pardon our dust! We’re renovating our Adoptions Building at our San Diego Campus (5500 Gaines St.).
Please see our Renovation Updates page for important information so you know what to expect when visiting our San Diego Campus to adopt an animal.
Important Steps To Take
We encourage everyone considering to buy a pet to be mindful and do their homework to ensure they are working with responsible and ethical breeders.

An orphaned California black bear cub is gaining strength at San Diego Humane Society’s Ramona Wildlife Center. The approximately 7-month-old cub was rescued by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) in Bishop, CA on Dec. 15, 2022 and transferred to San Diego Humane Society’s Project Wildlife program for care.
