To bring or not to bring the dog… that is the question. With outdoor gatherings all summer long, are you stressing out because you want to bring your dog, but not sure if it’s okay?

Sometimes you may have concerns about your dog's behavior that go beyond the scope of regular dog training classes or seminars. We can offer you one-on-one assistance with your companion's behavioral challenges. All consultations are done by one of our specialists in the Behavior Department and under the guidance of Dr. Emily Weiss, a nationally known Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist, to find positive, humane solutions for you and your canine.

Misty might be 12 years old, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't deserve to live out her golden years in a warm, loving home. WHS Adoption Counselors will surely find this sweet girl a great family who will pamper her and love her until the end of her days. |

Animal abuse, like many other forms of abuse, is about power and control over a helpless victim. It is intolerable. By taking action against animal cruelty, WHS not only prevents animal suffering, but also uncovers and perhaps prevents additional crimes. Every day, we work to make our community a safer, more humane place to live. |
