MAGGIE’S BARKYARD IS OPEN!


Dr. Phil and Maggie


With the generous help of TV’s Dr. Phil and many others, Glendale Humane is proud to unveil Maggie’s Barkyard. This magical space allows for pets and people to get to know one another and forge a bond that will help hundreds of homeless dogs find their forever homes. It’s a beautiful, happy and safe place with a dog pool, shady trees, benches and lots of room to run, romp and play!


Many people have become a part of this special space and left a legacy for generations to come by dedicating a brick paver that is a permanent part of Maggie’s Barkyard . There’s still room to add bricks. With a $100 donation, you can personalize a paver with an inscription- a great way to recognize family, friends and beloved pets.

MAKE YOUR DOG FAMOUS…OR INFAMOUS!

Draw the Dog is a cute and clever website that captures the unique, comical and down right silly antics of dogs. Draw the Dog is drawn by Jim George who lives near the beach in Venice and spent years animating. (He’s created characters for film and TV, been a director, book author and also has a counseling practice). Jim really likes animals and people, too and would almost certainly run out of good ideas, so the whole idea of the website is that most cartoons are inspired by real life dogs and their real life antics.
Since the vast majority of dogs have trouble typing, Draw the Dog depends on dog owners to write descriptions of their canine companions and their exploits. If inspired by your story, Jim will write inspired by (your dog’s name) in (your town and state) next to the resulting cartoon. They post a new cartoon every day except Sunday.
Click here to visit Draw the Dog. View these comical and clever cartoons and learn how you can make your canine companion famous, or in some cases, infamous!
