Animal Advocates

Animal Advocates is a nonprofit, all volunteer, Pittsburgh-based animal welfare organization involved in the rescue, care and placement of companion animals. Serving the Pittsburgh area since 1984, Animal Advocates has adhered to a no-kill policy and engaged in community based advocacy on behalf of animals since its inception. We believe the relationship between a human and companion animal is an important bond that improves the physical and social well-being of individuals and the community at large.

Meet Blu (courtesy post)

If you are seeking a dog who is fabulous in every way, you need look no further as Blu is your guy. Blu is a young adult Border Collie mix who sports a sleek and gorgeous chocolate and white coat. He is energetic and athletic fellow who loves to play -- his favorite is fetch -- for which he displays top-notch skills. And he also gets high marks in cuddles, also one of his favorite activities. Blu would love (and need) an active lifestyle with a family that would include him in their activities. Blu has beauty and brains and a truly amazing and friendly personality.  We believe Blu will be a devoted companion who will try to please in every situation. He will flourish in a home that will keep his mind engaged and help him be confident in new situations. For more information on Blu, please contact the Brooke County Animal Shelter at 304-394-0800,

Adoption Process
Before scheduling a meet-and-greet with one of our adoptable cats or dogs, you must complete an application and interview with an adoption team member. Applications are located on our website at www.animaladvocates.net. We get to know the pets’ personalities and needs very well, striving to make the best possible match for both animals and adopters. Adoptions Fees (as of 1/2021) -Young (year or younger): $100 kitten – $225 puppy -Adult (year or older): $80 cat – $180 dog -Senior (10 / 8 years or older): $60 cat – $90 dog - Discount for adopting a pair – ½ off the adoption fee of the second cat or dog. We aim to provide high quality care for the well-being of rescued cats and dogs until they are placed in forever homes. All animals are regularly vet checked, fully vaccinated, spayed / neutered and microchipped. They are routinely treated for fleas and worms as well as any medical issues.
