Not just news. Inspiration.

About 2,000 dogs and cats are killed each day — yes, every single day — in America’s shelters.

Each one of them is an individual, a life worth saving. The reason they are killed? Because they don’t have safe places to call home. But as you know, there’s always something — sometimes big, sometimes small — that each of us can do to change that. As you leaf through the news in the following pages, it’s our hope that you’ll be inspired to learn more, or join us to take action in our commitment to Save Them All.

In addition to our sanctuary in southern Utah, the largest nokill sanctuary in the country, Best Friends has four regional centers and programs in communities nationwide. We’re working together with passionate individuals, animal shelters and a network of animal welfare organizations toward a common goal: to make our country no-kill by 2025.
