The Washington Area Humane Society (WAHS) is a no-kill shelter, funded solely by private contributions. Our shelter  takes in thousands of animals and investigates an average of 800 abuse complaints each year.

We need dedicated volunteers and your economic help to continue to operate. Every donation counts. See our Wish List.

MARTINGALE COLLARS FOR SALE

   
  Recently, a group of volunteers collectively contributed funds to purchase 26 Martingale collars which have been distributed to dogs currently at the shelter.  These collars were designed to fit comfortably on a dog off-leash, and to tighten enough when on-leash to prevent dogs from backing out of their collars.  We are hoping to provide all the adult dogs with martingales while they are at the shelter, but to do so, we need at least 21 more.  Read more... 

  LOTTERY CALENDAR COMING SOON
  Our 2011 calendars will be available for purchase soon!  Our calendars will feature photos of pets who have come into the shelter, and their stories.  In addition, every calendar has a three-digit number attached to it.  For a $30 donation, that will be your number from 1/1/11 until 12/31/11.  If that number comes out straight in the Pennsylvania Lottery's evening daily number, you win the amount of money posted on that day.  All of the proceeds from your purchase will assist us in providing shelter and finding loving homes for orphaned and abused animals in Washington County.  These would be a great gift for animal lovers or lottery players!  Sample calendar page and more info...
