What’s four-legged, adorable and capable of helping you achieve many of the most common New Year’s resolutions? Studies show that having a dog or cat can be instrumental in reducing stress, increasing exercise and even expanding one’s social circle.
At Best Friends Animal Society’s NKLA Pet Adoption Center in West Los Angeles, there are 100 dogs and cats of all ages to choose from. For example, Ranger, a handsome three year old German Shepherd mix, would make a fantastic, energetic jogging partner while Bella, a beautiful adult cat, is the perfect low-key couch potato to keep you company.
With its welcoming ambiance and friendly staff that make adopting a breeze, the NKLA Pet Adoption Center offers LA’s premier way to find your new best friend. It’s open from noon to 8 p.m. daily and conveniently located just minutes from the 405.
Adopting a pet can help with another common New Year’s resolution: making the world a better place. More than 9,000 dogs and cats are killed every day in U.S. shelters simply because they have no safe place to call home. Adoption is a key companion in how, by working together, we can Save Them All.
Save Them All is Best Friends Animal Society’s call to action to end the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters. Best Friends Animal Society is a national animal welfare organization focused on ending the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters. In Los Angeles, Best Friends leads the No-Kill Los Angeles (NKLA) Coalition, which is focused on ending the killing of dogs and cats in L.A. city shelters by 2017.
Photos and videos of adoptable pets can be previewed at nkla.org or at the center via the latest in touch-screen technology.
