Saving Lives Through Adoption

Today, there are millions of loveable, healthy dogs & cats that desperately need homes. Due to overpopulation of homeless pets, 4 million are euthanized every year— that's 11,000 pets every day. For this reason, PetSmart has chosen not to sell dogs or cats and instead we join forces with PetSmart Charities to help save the lives of pets through adoptions. Many homeless pets are purebred, so even if you’re looking for a particular breed, our adoptions program can help you find your next best friend.

Save a Pet's Life Today

If you're considering adoption now, PetSmart and PetSmart Charities can help. If you're not ready to adopt, but still want to save pets' lives, we have other ways to get involved.

Adopting In Store

You can find adoptable cats every day inside all PetSmart stores and adoptable dogs are available most weekends. When you adopt in store, PetSmart gives you savings on products & services to help you get started.

Adopting at Community Events

PetSmart Charities sponsors community adoption events. These increase your opportunities to help save lives, because of the large number of adoptable pets available in one location.

Locating Adoptable Pets Online

You can search online for adoptable pets in nearby shelters through petsmartcharities.org. You can even find specific breeds of dogs & cats.

Other Ways to Help

Not ready to adopt yet? You can save pets' lives by donating to PetSmart Charities, spaying or neutering your pet, or volunteering at your local shelter.

Real Adoption Stories

Ann and Napoleon
Ann adopted Napoleon from a rescue center that specializes in Jack Russell Terriers. "Whatever breed you're seeking, there's a rescue out there."

Jamie and Tuffy
Jamie said the large number of homeless pets influenced her decision to adopt Tuffy. That and Tuffy's energetic charm. "He seems like a lot of fun."

Lombardo, Mary, Daniella and Dylan
Dylan is the second Boxer Lombardo and his family have adopted from a Boxer rescue. "There are so many dogs in need out there, the people who feel the necessity to go to a breeder, it's just not necessary."
