The Washington Humane Society (WHS) is the oldest animal protection agency in Washington, DC. Since 1870, the Washington Humane Society has served homeless, lost, and abused animals in the District of Columbia; providing protection from cruelty, shelter from the elements, and a second chance at a loving home. As the only open-access shelter in the Nation's Capital, no call for help goes unanswered, and no animal is ever turned away.

The Washington Humane Society protects animals and serves the community through a wide variety of programs. Visit:

While the heart of our mission remains rescuing animals in trouble and finding them good, permanent homes, we also focus on preventing suffering through humane education targeted toward at-risk youth, low-cost spay/neuter services offered at our S/N Center and by diligently enforcing the District's anti-cruelty laws.
