Upcoming Dog Adoption Events in Folsom, CA
Adopt a dog at one of our dog adoption events near Rocklin
Rocklin is a busy, family-friendly city with great schools, miles of trails, and a lot of green space for pets. Its granite quarry history and growing neighborhoods make it a place where dogs and families both thrive. If you’re ready to bring a rescue home, our Folsom adoption events are a manageable drive away and a great chance to meet your match.
Getting to an adoption event
The trip from Rocklin to our Folsom event takes about 25 minutes. Take Highway 65 or Sierra College Boulevard south, then continue toward Folsom on the main roads. Our Folsom adoption events at Petco are the closest option for Rocklin adopters. After you find a dog you like on our available dogs page, reserve a spot so you can meet them at the next Folsom event.
Dog-friendly Rocklin
Rocklin is full of places to walk a dog. Quarry Park Adventures and its surrounding trails are scenic for leashed dogs, and the city’s neighborhood parks and trail network, including Johnson-Springview Park, make daily exercise easy. The shopping areas near Stanford Ranch and downtown Rocklin often have outdoor seating where dogs are welcome. Keep your dog leashed in public spaces, and bring water on warmer days since trails can get hot in the afternoon.

Location 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!
