Pitbull Rescue

A nonprofit 501(c)3 no-kill organization, Westside German Shepherd Rescue of Los Angeles is dedicated to saving adopting all varieties of German Shepherd Dogs from high-kill shelters to suitable, loving homes.

Cats, dogs, puppies, and kittens are given a temporary, safe home by FUR BABY RESCUE. Our animals are rescued from high kill shelters, the streets of south Los Angeles, and families who are no longer able to care for them the majority of the time.

It has been 153 years since the City of Los Angeles Animal Services Department was founded. Saving animals' lives who find up at one of the six city shelters is one of the Department's primary responsibilities.

In Los Angeles, California, betterTogether Forever provides resources and referrals to at-risk, under-resourced, under-served, and housing-challenged pet parents so they can keep their pets, keep them safe and healthy, and NOT have to give them up, abandon them on the streets, or surrender them to an animal shelter.

LA Animal Services provides assistance to animals, wild animals, and the people who care for them. These are only a few of the services that are most in demand.

The two French physicians Drs. Maroteaux and Lamy, who first described the condition in 1963, are the namesakes of the Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome. Before realizing that children also suffered from this disorder, these doctors first identified it in Miniature Pinscher dogs.
