2024 Puppy Palooza: All 20 puppies at National Puppy Day adoption event now have forever homes

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- March 23 is National Puppy Day, and we celebrated a day early with our 8th annual Puppy Palooza adoption event.

Friday morning on Eyewitness News, we featured 20 adoptable pooches from spcaLA. By Friday afternoon, all 20 puppies were adopted!

Three bigger dogs from this morning's event still need forever homes. Those wishing to adopt them can go to the spcaLA PD Pitchford Companion Animal Village & Education Center, Friday, March 22 at 11 a.m. The address is 7700 E. Spring Street in Long Beach.

The adoption fees for these three dogs are free, thanks to Howard's Appliances and The Lab Athletic Club!
