More than 30,000 pets enter our local shelters each year, but sadly all may not find a new home. Adopt Love Adopt Local, an initiative of the Pima Alliance for Animal Welfare (PAAW), aims to solve this issue by connecting adopters with a collaboration of local shelters and rescues to increase adoptions and awareness. Through research, education, and an annual, community-wide adoption event we intend for every displaced companion pet in our community, to have a happy, forever home.

Adopt Love Adopt Local is a one-day mega-adoption animal fair designed to help hundreds of our community’s homeless pets find their forever homes.

The Humane Society of Southern Arizona is teaming up with Tucson's newest sports entertainment extravaganza, Tucson Sugar Skulls indoor football, for a "bring your dogs to the game!" event on Sunday, April 14th. Kickoff is at 3pm at the Tucson Arena downtown - but the fun starts well before that!

The Tucson Sugar Skulls return to the "boneyard" at the TCC arena for the third home game of their inaugural season this coming Sunday, April 14th against in-state rivals the Arizona Rattlers for a key Indoor Football League matchup. The fun starts at 1pm with an outdoor tailgate and community celebration featuring your Humane Society of Southern Arizona, onsite with wonderful adoptable dogs from 1 to 3pm.

Already have a dog? GREAT - bring them to the game! For just a $5 doggie ticket (available only at the TCC box office) you can bring your leashed and well-behaved canine pal to the Sugar Skulls game with you! And that $5 is being collected and donated to the Humane Society so we can continue our great programs for pets in our community.

HSSA Main Campus, Thrift, PAWSH La Encantada, and PAWSH Park Place Mall will be closed for in-service staff training this day. We will resume normal operating hours on Tuesday, April 30th.
