Welcome to the J.D. Pitchford Animal Companion Village, home of Long Beach Animal Care Services and SPCA-LA. In 2001, the Animal Care Services relocated to its new state-of-the-art companion animal care and control village. Thanks to a unique partnership agreement between the City of Long Beach and the spcaLA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Los Angeles), the two agencies now jointly deliver innovative and revolutionary care to the animals that enter the Village. Residents of Long Beach and contract cities also benefit from more efficient animal care services.  The P.D. Pitchford Companion Animal Village is a friendly and functionally efficient facility that serves as a national model for future animal shelters. The Village is housed on over 6 acres and provides a healthier and safer environment for the animals. Some of the exciting and innovative features of the Village include an interactive display of adoptable animals, cat colonies with screened porches allowing indoor/outdoor access, state-of-the-art indoor/outdoor dog kennels and a multipurpose education center. Community residents and guests are invited to visit the P.D. Pitchford Companion Animal Village to learn about the humane treatment and care of all animals and, perhaps, spend time with some of the wonderful creatures housed at the Village. | |
