Meet Our Pet of the Week!
Make a Splash With Jango
Helen Woodward Animal Center Pet-of-the-Week
Rancho Santa Fe, Calif. –Amid the Dog Days of Summer, our Pet of the Week Jango is the perfect companion to cool down with. He loves playing in a kiddie pool or on the Center’s splash pad. This 4-year-old Alaskan Malamute blend has a smile that will warm your heart and a sweet personality to go along with it. Jango would do best in a home with adults and with a fenced yard where he can around and play. He was rescued from an overcrowded shelter in Louisiana and he is so excited to find a forever family here in sunny San Diego.
He’s waiting to meet you at Helen Woodward Animal Center. He has been altered and is up-to-date on all of his vaccinations. As with all pets adopted from Helen Woodward Animal Center, he is microchipped for identification.

Helen Woodward Animal Center pets come from a variety of sources, such as the transfer of animals from public shelters to relieve overcrowding, working with local dog and cat rescues, as well as owner surrender. Every animal in our pet adoption program has received a medical examination, spay or neuter surgery, vaccinations, tons of TLC and a microchip. Our goal is to adopt our pets into loving and permanent homes. Helen Woodward Animal Center Adoption Counselors are here to help you choose a pet who will be your perfect match for life.
