OUR MISSION

The mission of the Humane Society of Skagit Valley is to provide a safe haven to shelter and care for the abandoned, abused or unwanted animals within Skagit County; to treat animals with dignity and respect; to place these animals in loving and caring homes; and to create public education programs to increase the awareness of the necessity of spay and neuter as well as humane treatment for animals.

The Humane Society of Skagit Valley was established in 1974 and sees over 3500 animals pass through its doors each year.
