Animal Disaster at WHS - Homes Needed NOW

Wash Humane, Neighbor

IT'S RAINING CATS & DOGS! We are in immediate need of adopters! In July alone, we took in 874 animals. At the same time, we only had 241 adoptions. Homes are needed NOW.www.washhumane.org/adopt 

*PLEASE SHARE FAR AND WIDE*

We are encouraging any members of the public considering surrendering their pet, to please make every effort to keep their pet at home, or work to re-home their pet independently. Those with dogs over 35 pounds experiencing difficulties keeping a pet due to landlord restrictions are asked to please call Alicia Guidi at 202-207-7253, or housing@washhumane.org. We may be able to provide free resources. 

Pet owners considering surrendering their pet due to a behavior issue can seek advice from our behavior and training counselors at askthetrainer@washhumane.org.
