Nearly 400 cats, dogs and critters are in need of homes and AHS is going to do something about it. The "We're Not Going Home ‘Til They Do" adopt-a-thon will take place Friday, June 10 and Saturday, June 11 with extended hours.

The Arizona Humane Society’s annual Howl-i-Day Pet Food and Supply Drive runs from today through Dec. 31.

A young puppy thrown from a vehicle in the south East Valley recently will likely be going to a new home Wednesday.

As the holidays approach, humans aren’t the only ones who could use some charity.

When Dana Zupke accepted the head coaching position at Phoenix Pinnacle, he set one major goal — take the Pioneers to their first-ever playoff appearance.
