Launched in 1991, a group of Sun Valley residents gathered together to help the homeless, abandoned, abused and neglected animals. It is a non-profit organization that relies on local businesses, groups and the general public to donate to the cause. It operates a No-Kill policy and offers compassion and medical intervention to the animals that need their assistance.
Glendale Humane Society is another tiny, non-profit animal shelter that has been around for just under 100 years. This marvelous shelter provides a wide range of services, taking in animals and caring for them, giving them medical care, comforting them and finding permanent homes for them.
