Full Belly Bus mobile pet care team is committed to supporting San Francisco pet owners who are working to prevent and end their homelessness.
FBB provides free: licensed veterinary care, certified animal behavior training, grooming, pet food, as well as supplies like leashes, collars, harnesses and pet coats to unhoused people with companion dogs and cats. Our primary goal is to help people to keep their pets.
Our animal welfare experts offer care without conditions and help without judgment. Since we began our organization in 2015 as advocates for pet owners who are residentially challenged, FBB helps make a dramatic reduction in the number of dogs and cats entering San Francisco’s animal shelters; enhances the quality of life for transitionally-housed animals; and supports pet owners of every age, race, gender identity, expression, and sexual orientation.
