Help Our Cause
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions for homeless pets. Your generous donation will fund our mission.
The CCSPCA does not receive government funds, but rely upon local fundraisers and donations. The CCSPCA is a tax-exempt non-profit 501(c)3 corporation (Fed # 20-0294474), and is a volunteer run organization where 100% of the donations go to the pets in our care.
Come out and support our fundraising efforts and pick up a treat from our always present bake sale, as this is usually for "Ways and Means" to cover basic administrative and equipment costs.

Penny is adoptable!
Penny Piper, 2 year old shepherd mix
UPDATE: Penny is an awesome pup and is ready for her new home. Contact us by email if you wish to meet her: centralcoastspca@yahoo.com
Sweet Penny had a rough beginning in life... but she is sure doing better now!
When Penny was rescued at 3 months of age, she was emaciated, continuously regurgitating her food, and had some terrible skin issues, along with a strange "twitching" when tired or resting. We took her to specialists in Santa Barbara (Advanced Vet Services) to find out what was going on.
Cardiology was first... and they determined that Penny has some minor underdeveloped heart defects, along with a condition called Megaesophagus (ME) (click link). Next, scheduling Penny with an Internist was helpful in ruling out many secondary conditions of ME, and it was determined her ME was congenital, possibly brought on by distemper (click link). We believe that Penny's mom had distemper while pregnant, and was given antibiotics as a treatment.
These two things in combo prevented full development of her esophagus, and heart... and left her with a "twitch" when resting, along with loss of enamel on her adult teeth, resulting in brown, missing and easily broken teeth.
Penny is an amazing puppy! She learned how to get into her new Bailey Chair in just a few days, and knows that she has to stay in the chair for 15 minutes afterwards to allow all food to pass into her stomach. All of her meals need to be ground up and then water added until it is a "milkshake" consistency. When released from the chair she is a normal puppy who runs, plays and chases the other dogs with gleeful happiness. While we plan to fix her teeth in the next month, Penny is doing so well she is currently adoptable!
Penny was spayed in Santa Barbara under strict cardiology guidelines, and received an endoscopy at the same time. Everything went great and we are happy to report that Penny does not have any secondary conditions to ME, but it cost almost $2,500 for these procedures.
At 6 months of age, Penny had a full dental to fix broken, missing and brown teeth due to lack of enamel from the dystemper virus and treatment (see photo on left). She is completely missing her canines, which causes her tongue to hang out the side of her mouth. We knew that this will be expensive, and are still fundraising for the dental procedure.
Like most animal rescues, we have not been able to fundraise in a normal way this year, and do not have the financial reserves we usually keep for emergencies... and therefore need donations to help Penny and other emergency rescues. PLEASE HELP!!! Donations can be made through PayPal (scroll up to the donations link) or checks can be mailed to: CCSPCA, P.O. Box 2952, Orcutt, CA 93457. All donations are tax deductible as we are a 501c3 non profit rescue organization.
Original Post: Penny was accepted into our organization on December 29 after her owners couldn't financially help her any longer, but wanted to make sure she would be ok.
Tentatively diagnosed with a diaphragmatic hernia, which is a tear in the chest cavity wall. She has an upcoming appointment with a cardiologist and we are keeping her comfortable and calm until then. If further testing shows the tear can be fixed, she will hopefully go right into surgery.
Penny is very sweet, loves everyone, and has a wonderful temperament... after surgery she will make some special person or family an ideal addition to their home.
2026 Santa Paws is in the planning stage!
