A huge congratulations to our College Corps intern, Jaylyn, for receiving a Student Ambassador Award! 🎉🐾

This past year, Jaylyn has not only represented the College Corps program for Cal Poly, but she was also selected to serve as an ambassador for the program at the state level! We are so proud of all she has accomplished and so grateful for the passion, leadership, and dedication she brings to Woods every day. This recognition is incredibly well deserved!

We also want to give a big shoutout to all three of our amazing College Corps fellows. Through Woods’ partnership with the program, they have contributed an incredible 1,350 service hours during the 2025-2026 school year alone! Their hard work, compassion, and commitment make such a difference for the animals and people at Woods, and we are beyond thankful for everything they do.✨

Hi, I’m Lacey! 💜

I’m a 4-year-old, female Pit Bull Terrier mix with great taste in accessories—seriously, put a cute bandana on me and I’m ready for my photoshoot. 💁‍♀️✨

I’m new to Woods SLO, but I’ve already become a staff favorite! I love spending time with my people and showing off my sweet personality. While I would prefer a home without cats, I may be able to make some dog friends with proper introductions.

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving best friend who looks adorable in every bandana she wears, I might just be your girl. Come meet me at Woods SLO today!✨

Hi, I’m Eevee! 🤍🐾

I’m a 2-month-old, female Husky puppy, and yes, I know I’m pretty adorable. My favorite hobbies include taking cozy naps, being held like a baby, and melting hearts everywhere I go. 🥹

I’m new to Woods SLO and still learning about the world, but what I do know is that I love being close to my people and getting lots of cuddles. I’m looking for a family that will help me grow, learn, and become the best adventure buddy I can be.

If you’re looking for a sweet little best friend with puppy charm for days, come meet me at Woods SLO! 💕

Hello! My name is Beckham. I’m a handsome 9-year-old male Tabby. I’ve been at Woods SLO for a little while now, waiting to find a loving home.🥺❤️

Looking for a lap cat? Well, I’m looking for a lap to curl up in! Head scratches? Yes. Chin scratches? I’m in! Butt scratches? Definitely. Basically, I’m a loving and affectionate gentleman.
I enjoy curling up for naps in the sunshine and have been indoor/outdoor in the past, so I wouldn’t mind a home with access to the outdoors. I’ve also lived with cats before, so don’t mind having a feline friend.

Think I could be the guy for you? Come meet me at Woods in SLO every day from 12-4pm!

At Woods Humane Society, we understand that sometimes life circumstances make it necessary to find a new home for a beloved pet. Our rehoming resources are designed to help pet owners explore alternatives to surrendering their pets to a shelter whenever possible.

Through our partnership with Adopt a Pet, owners can create a pet profile and connect directly with potential adopters while their pet remains safely in their current home. Your pet can be featured on both the Woods rehome section of the website and Adopt a Pet to increase visibility. In addition, a 90% off listing fee code is available through Woods Humane Society for those utilizing this resource.

If you need assistance rehoming your pet, we’re here to support you. Head to our website below to learn more about this resource. 🐾❤️

Hi, I'm George! 🐾

I'm an 11-month-old black Lab with a big heart, a big body, and an even bigger love for people. If you're looking for a dog who thinks you're the coolest person in the world, I might just be your guy. ❤️

I already know how to sit (pretty impressive, right?), and I'm always eager to learn more, especially if treats and praise are involved! Since I'm still a young pup, I'll need continued training and guidance, but I promise I'll make it worth your while.

My favorite thing? Getting attention from my humans and soaking up all the love I can get. I'm basically a certified good boy looking for a family to call my own.

Come meet me at Woods SLO and see if we're the perfect match! 🐶

Hi, I’m Paris! 🥖❤️

You might think Paris is all romance, charm, and leisurely strolls through the city... but I’m more like a whirlwind of fun powered by toys, treats, and pure puppy enthusiasm. 😂

I’m 6 months old, and I’ve been at Woods SLO for a little while now. I love playing with dog friends, never turn down a tasty treat, and I’m absolutely OBSESSED with toys, seriously, I hope you have room for a big toy basket! 🎾🦴

Since I’m still a puppy, I have lots of growing and learning to do. Growing up in a shelter is hard, but I’ve been working with the training team to learn important skills and become the best dog I can be. What I need most is someone willing to give me a chance, be patient with me, and continue helping me learn.

If you’re looking for a goofy, playful adventure buddy with lots of love to give, I’d love to meet you. Come visit me at Woods SLO today! 😇

Hello! I'm Margot! 😁

I'm a 1-year-old, female French Bulldog with lots of energy and enthusiasm for life! Since I'm still young, I'm always ready for an adventure, whether that's going for a car ride, exploring somewhere new, or spending time with my favorite people.

I've met other dogs and kids before, and with proper introductions, I may be able to make some new friends. Because I'm a young, active girl, I'll do best with a family that can help me continue learning good manners, provide plenty of enrichment, and keep both my mind and body busy.

Don't worry, I have a sweet side too! Once I've gotten my wiggles out, I love soaking up attention and being close to my people.

If you're looking for a fun, loving companion to grow and learn alongside, come meet me at Woods Humane Society SLO today! 🐾
