Meet Ambi who is sweet, smart, and well-mannered pup when interacting with her human friends. She’s great on walks (no heavy pulling!), rides well in the car, and has excellent house manners. Ambi is very food and toy motivated, loves puzzle games and stuffed toys, and already knows commands like “sit” and “down.” She’s social with people and visitors, has done great with kids on Doggy Day Outs, and wins everyone over with her calm, friendly vibe. Ambi’s the total package and ready to meet her forever family!

Take your time getting to know the animal you wish to adopt. The pet you choose should be your pet for the rest of its life, so spend the time necessary to make the right choice. Our staff is happy to assist you in taking a dog out of the kennels or socializing with a cat in the cat room. We encourage each person in your household to get acquainted with an animal before it becomes a new member of your family. We also suggest you bring your present pets in for an introduction to the new animal to form some ideas about their compatibility. Our Redwood City location is open Thursday-Saturday, 12:30pm-6:00pm and our Palo Alto location is open every day from 12:30-6:00pm.

More about this shelter
Our mission is to provide animals with loving care and lasting homes, to partner with communities striving to do the same, and to advance our no-kill legacy.
We accomplish our mission by transferring cats and dogs to our facilities from public shelters in the Bay Area and beyond when they are in danger of being euthanized due to space or financial limitations.
Pets In Need has shelters in Redwood City and Palo Alto. We have owned and operated our Redwood City shelter since 1993, and in 2019 we began operating the Palo Alto Animal Shelter in partnership with the City of Palo Alto.
Pets In Need is now operating the Palo Alto Animal Shelter. The City of Palo Alto still provides Animal Control Services for the cities of Palo Alto, Los Altos, & Los Altos Hills, CA
