Friends of Front Street Shelter
We’re committed to improving the lives of all stray, abandoned, and abused animals who come to the Front Street Animal Shelter. We support programs needed to find loving homes and care for animals in need. We endeavor to support all pets in the region and the people who love them.
Position Statement: 2025 Shelter Audit
We know our community has questions about our feelings on the recent Performance Audit of the City of Sacramento’s Animal Care Services Division, more commonly known as the Front Street Shelter. Our Board of Directors has provided the following statement addressing the audit findings. We welcome the opportunity to address any additional questions you may have — please reach out to us at contact@friendsoffrontstreet.org.

Success Stories
Dana & Angel
When Dana’s dog Angel suffered injuries after an encounter with a stray dog, she worried she would lose her. Now Angel is back to her usual mischief!
Horvath Family & Panda
After suffering a terrifying attack by a neighbor’s dog, Panda needed help. His family was so grateful!
Keerah & Prince
Prince’s mom Keerah didn’t know where to turn when a suspicious mass appeared.
Owner of Buggles
Buggles urgently needed to see a vet, and his owner’s transportation fell through at the last minute. He not only made it to the appointment, he’s feeling much better now!
René & Peanut
The AdoptUs program for hospice animals helped get Peanut out of the shelter and home with René, where he is happy and loved.
Vanessa & Lilo
When a medical emergency threatened Lilo’s life, Vanessa felt helpless. Now her “ride or die” dog is safe and healthy.
