8 organizations in
Santa Monica that take in and rehome beagles, hounds, and other dogs. Always call
ahead to confirm current beagle availability.
Santa Monica's eight organizations run the full spectrum — from the sleek City of Santa Monica Animal Shelter and its companion foundation at the top end, down to smaller rescues and breed-specific groups with bare-bones websites. Don't let a rough online presence fool you: places like Beagle and Friends and Balanced Dogs exist specifically to place hounds, and a low-grade website often means more money goes to actual dogs. This page pulls together everything in Santa Monica proper, but here's the real advantage: you're five miles from Los Angeles, which alone lists seventeen organizations. Start local, reach out to a few at once, and be ready to expand east into the city if your initial calls come up quiet.
Santa Monica's Animal Services Unit, a city-run facility, offers a range of animal-health and welfare programs aimed at protecting the wellbeing of animals and residents in this beachside Los Angeles County community. Details about adoption, foster, or spay-neuter services aren't spelled out in this overview, so contact the shelter directly to ask about current dogs available—including beagles or hounds—and how its adoption process works.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation that raises funds and promotes adoptions at the Santa Monica Animal Shelter, located at 1640 9th Street and open Tuesday–Saturday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. As the shelter's support organization it handles adoptions of dogs and cats from the city's facility, so beagles and hound-mixes turn up regularly among the animals waiting for homes.

Santa Monica's eight groups are your first call, but living here means you're sitting in one of California's densest adoption networks. If nothing appears locally in the first week, Los Angeles proper is minutes away with nearly twenty more organizations to contact. Call ahead to confirm a beagle is available — availability changes constantly — and ask smaller groups like Beagle and Friends if they have a waitlist. The drive between Santa Monica and LA is easy enough that a hound in either city is practically a hound at home. Make those calls, and you'll bring back a beach-town beagle that deserves exactly this kind of patient, dedicated search.
