Pasadena Humane is waiving adoption fees for dogs weighing 40 pounds or more until December 31st to help find loving homes for their large canine residents. The adopted dogs will be featured in the Pasadena Humane's 2025 Rose Parade float, 'Welcome Home.'
It isn't all that unusual to come across an adorable animal romping in a garden, the sort of sunny stretch that is filled with shrubs, butterflies, and all sorts of flowers. But a related sight that is rather more rare? A huge, flower-covered vehicle devoted to dogs, cats, and the cute critters that need a forever home.
The 2025 float, movingly dubbed 'Welcome Home,' is being prepared in the weeks ahead of the world-famous event, but there's a way you can play an important role in the float's mission well before the parade begins: Meeting a new forever friend at the Raymond Avenue animal center. If you adopt a dog that is 40 pounds or more through Dec. 31, Pasadena Humane will waive the fees. Want to find new things to do in Los Angeles? The Scene's lifestyle stories have you covered. Here's your go-to source on where the fun is across SoCal and for the weekend. Roses may smell sweet, but this kind-hearted push to place pups with loving people is about as sweet as sweet things get. Your cutie will be microchipped and spayed or neutered; all of the 'age-appropriate vaccines' will have been administered, too, before you whisk your hound home. The animal center shares the fact that the majority of Pasadena Humane's canine residents are large dogs. 'With the holidays upon us, there's no better time to give a shelter dog the gift of a forever home,' said Dia DuVernet, Pasadena President & CEO. 'Our hope is that all of our big dogs will be watching the Rose Parade from the comfort of their new families' living rooms.
