can’t help but feel privileged to be in one of the most progressive animal communities
in the nation – where people have a deep support of animals and pets are treated like
a member of the family. But even in progressive communities like ours, there’s still
much work to be done. There are more than 45,000 homeless animals that enter San
Diego Animal Welfare Coalition (SDAWC) shelters each year. Of these animals, nearly
3,000 were euthanized in coalition shelters last year due to treatable or manageable
illnesses or behavior. We want to get that number to zero, and we’ve made it the San

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.
Adoptions/Admissions: We’re increasing the number of incoming and outgoing
community.
Reaching More Animals: We pledge to do everything possible to keep animals in
their homes. By providing needed emergency veterinary care, an expanded pet food
bank, new vaccination clinics, needed pet supplies and other resources to keep animals
and their owners together during times of financial or other hardships.
With more than 45,000 homeless animals entering our shelters each year, the
Treatable Pet Initiative requires significant resources to provide the medical care,
behavioral rehabilitation, and ongoing care that each of these animals need. We
can’t do it alone. This is a community initiative which involves collaboration, and the
support of donors like you. Together, we believe we can achieve our foremost goal of
“Getting to Zero,” even if it’s one animal at a time.
Warmly,

M
ore than 5,000 two-legged and 2,000 fourlegged friends took part in the San Diego
Humane Society and SPCA’s 19th annual Walk
for Animals on Saturday, May 4th. The Pawsitively Patriotic-themed Walk was held for the
first time at the NTC Park in Liberty Station,
the site of the historic Naval training grounds.
The two mile Walk celebrated our love for animals
while raising crucial funds that will help to ensure
that every homeless animal in our community can
find a loving home. Those who attended enjoyed a
delicious pancake breakfast courtesy of Phil’s BBQ
and were able to browse Vendor Village, where an
array of goods were available for purchase. After
breakfast, Leash Your Fitness spokeswoman, Dawn
Celapino, led the walkers in a relaxing stretch to
limber up. Many guests also participated in the funfilled doggie activities and contests. A special thanks
goes to Pamela Howe from KPRI 102.1 and Dave
Mason from Walrus 105.7 FM for being the event
emcees. This year’s walk raised $ 435,000, which
will go towards ensuring that the 10,000 animals
estimated to come through our doors in the next year
are well supported in their quest to find a perfect
family to call their own.

New Behavior Center
“Getting to Zero” euthanasia of treatable pets by
2015 in San Diego coalition shelters is our foremost
goal, so we are excited to announce the opening of a
Behavior Center. The purpose of this program is to
rehabilitate dogs and cats who may display fearful,
shy, timid, defensive behavior, or high levels of
arousal while in the shelter-setting. Our goal is to
develop, implement and analyze behavior training
and modification programs to meet each individual
animal’s needs. This program will enrich the lives
of the animals in our care and ensure successful
placement once adopted.

Healing of the Heart
Back in April 2013, we received a call from the
San Diego County Department of Animal Services.
They adored Krissy, a cat with a severe skin
condition, so they asked if her unique condition was
something we could treat.
Krissy’s hind legs had extensive skin and tendon
damage, which required multiple skin graphs and
amputation of one of her legs. We are fortunate to
have a wonderful medical team on staff that was
s
able to treat her. Her spirit never wavered and she
was ready for adoption just one month later. Her
new adopters spotted her on our website and once
they visited her, they knew she was the one!
“Krissy has so much love in her heart and spirit
in her personality; it is truly inspiring what she has
endured with such courage and perseverance, with the
help and support of the San Diego Humane Society.
Tripod cats are very special beings who seem to be
completely unphased by any perceived disability. It is a
joy to have her as part of our family. We can’t imagine
life without her.”

cats, to rats, birds, and reptiles for campers ages 5-13.
Campers also put their creativity to work in making

FOSTERING NEW BEGINNINGS
Short-Ter m Stays with Foster Parents Make a Long-Ter m Difference for Animals
The San Diego Humane Society’s Foster Care Program is a nurturing, rehabilitating and often
life-saving service for baby animals, mothers with litters, animals with minor
medical needs or other animals in need of extra-special time and attention.
Foster care allows us to impact even more animals by opening up
space in the shelter, ultimately helping the organization reach its
goal “Getting to Zero,” an initiative to save the life of every
adoptable animal in our area shelters, thus helping to
ensure that San Diego remains one of the very best cities
to own and – perhaps most importantly – to be a pet.
We provide Foster Volunteers with:
• All necessary training, supplies and support
• Flexible scheduling: You can foster for as little
as a day, a weekend, or a week at a time.
If you’re interested in being a foster parent,
please email [email protected].

n between the cushions of an
old piece of furniture discarded
in an alley, a tiny life was
struggling to survive...
The orphaned kitten was only days old, and his odds for
survival were not good. Then again, little Lazyboy (named,
fittingly, after the furniture piece in which he was found)
Lazyboy
had already beaten the odds by simply surviving for as
long as he had. It was clear that this kitten had some fight
in him. Discovered by the San Diego County Department
of Animal Services, Lazyboy was immediately transferred
to our Kitten Nursery with the hopes that the aroundthe-clock care he would receive could help him through
his battle for survival. In the days to follow, Lazyboy was
closely monitored by the many surrogate parents he had
now found in our nursery care staff, who bottle fed him
every 2 hours, stimulated him the way his mother would,
kept him clean and groomed, and most importantly, they
provided an abundance of love. Lazyboy was able to grow

healthy and strong, and the little fighter was adopted into a
loving home on June 15th of this year.
Sadly, neonatal kittens represent one of the largest
populations of shelter animals being euthanized. Most animal
welfare organizations simply do not have the necessary
capabilities to care for and nurture these little lives at their
most fragile life stage. We feel fortunate to be able to serve as a
resource for other shelters in this capacity, and consider it our
responsibility to do so. This year alone, we were able to transfer
878 kittens from other shelters to our Kitten Nursery where
they received the care they needed to have a fighting chance.

This year, the San Diego Humane Society transferred

accordance with our Treatable Pet Initiative. Simply put, the

Because of this, we took Brownie in without question and

Brownie was recovered and adopted into a loving home.
We’re all connected. This is at the heart of what it means
to be a community. It can be easy to lose sight of that in this
highly competitive world, but if we truly want to inspire
dramatic change, we can’t expect to get very far unless we
work together. We know that our goal of saving the life of
every treatable animal in San Diego coalition shelters is
possible, but only if we commit to reaching out and working
together for the sake of the animals…and it’s only by
working together that we can make this a reality.

Quelle Fête Extraordinnaire!
Parisian Fur Ball Gala Raises $330,000 for the Animals
T
op hats and tailcoats were all
the rage at the 27th annual
Fur Ball Gala. This year’s
celebration amassed 650 people and
300 dogs at San Diego’s only dogfriendly, black-tie gala on Saturday,
August 17th. Guests celebrated
their Parisian style with dancing
and live music, and both two-legged
and four-legged guests donned their
black-tie finery. An elegant dinner of
French cuisine was accompanied by
a robust silent and live auction and
guests danced the night away under
a starry summer sky – it was a night
to remember for all. The event netted
$330,000 to support the animals of
our community and the programs and
services provided by the San Diego
Humane Society. The evening honored
Paul E. Jolly, Founder and Executive
Director of the Petco Foundation for
his unwavering support animals, not
just in our own backyard, but around
the world.

Life-saving support in the nick of time
This past spring, the San Diego Humane Society and SPCA was honored
to be selected by Las Patronas as a 2013 Grant Beneficiary. Las Patronas
awarded the San Diego Humane Society with a generous grant that was
used to purchase a new medical scanning device for our North Campus
Veterinary Hospital. The previous scanning device had begun acting
erratically, and its impending breakdown would have threatened our
ability to effectively treat sick and injured animals in North County.
The grant award from Las Patronas allowed for the immediate purchase
of a new medical scanning device, which gave our North Campus
Veterinary Hospital a fully functioning X-Ray system, without interruption.
Support from Las Patronas has positively impacted our Veterinary Medicine
Department. As we work to save the lives of all treatable animals in San Diego Animal
Welfare Coalition shelters, it is essential that our veterinary hospitals maintain the
fully functional medical equipment needed to care for each and every treatable animal.
Thanks to the generosity of Las Patronas, this replacement equipment enables us to be
more efficient with our time and veterinary resources, which will help accomplish the lifesaving goals associated with our “Getting to Zero” campaign.
We are so thankful to all at Las Patronas for their loyal support of the San Diego
Humane Society and for this extraordinary gift which will touch animal lives for many
years to come.

Estate Planning
Procrastinate At Your Own Risk
I
t’s human nature to put off doing things we choose not to

life insurance or IRA until it is too late, good intentions will
until later, yet, what if “later” doesn’t apply? This can
not take effect when you’re gone. It’s also important to name
and does happen if we wait too long to plan our estate.

People die unexpectedly; leaving behind a mess for their
