Upcoming Dog Adoption Events in Sacramento, CA
Adopt a dog at one of our dog adoption events near Carmichael
Carmichael has a relaxed, semi-rural feel, with large lots, mature oaks, and easy access to the American River. Many families here have yards, which makes it a natural place for a dog to settle in and stretch out. Whether you’re after a hiking partner or a cuddly lap dog, our rescue events are a convenient way to find a match without leaving your side of the river.
Getting to an adoption event
Carmichael is about a 15 minute drive from our Sacramento adoption event at Petco, usually via Fair Oaks Boulevard or Marconi Avenue. It’s an easy trip for a weekend morning. Once you spot your favorite on our available dogs page, reserve a spot and plan your visit.
Dog-friendly Carmichael
Ancil Hoffman Park offers wide trails and open space, and Carmichael Park is a community favorite for walks and fresh air. The nearby American River Parkway adds even more miles to explore with a leashed dog. Because rules differ by park, check signs for leash requirements.

Adoption Event Manager
After raising five kids—including four feral boys—I know a thing or two about running with the pack. And as they all know, I’m a total sucker for dogs—especially the old-timers nobody else wants! While others chase puppies, I roll out the red carpet for the grumpy, grey-muzzled sweethearts. There’s nothing better than spoiling these senior pups with belly rubs, treats, and a cozy home for their golden years.
Lucky for me, I work for an organization that loves dogs as much as I do—because if they didn’t, trust me, I wouldn’t be here!
Dog Trainer
I’ve been loving and caring for all types of animals my whole life! After trying many different paths, I found my calling as a dog trainer. In doing so, I’ve helped many families grow closer together as they have fun while also learning. I have my senior Chihuahua mutts at home that are my entire world.
