WHS is excited to share that we’ve launched a new website!
For many years, we’ve dreamed of a new website and kept a running list of all the features and changes we’d love to implement someday. Our former site was launched in 2013 and has served us well, but in the last 13 years, we’ve grown by three campuses, a spay/neuter clinic, and too many programs to count!
Last year we were informed that our former website platform would be sunsetting in 2026, and we began a journey to build a new site from scratch with our partners at Yoko Co, who have worked with other animal welfare organizations.
For the past 10 months, we’ve been collaborating with their team to analyze user traffic on our prior site, setting the core goals of our new site, identifying the many areas of desired improvement, working through integrations with our many outside vendors, editing content, and moving nearly 500 pages from the old site to this one.
In the end, we’re proud of the finished product. The new site was designed from the ground up with one thing in mind: making sure our community can get the information they need as quickly and accurately as possible. Whether someone is looking to adopt, is in need of a low-cost vaccine or spay/neuter appointment, found an animal in need of help, has questions about a behavior challenge, or has to say a difficult goodbye to their companion, our website meets them where they’re at with concise, welcoming, non-judgmental language and a clean layout with clear calls to action.
As with all new endeavors, there will undoubtedly be some quirks to navigate, so we appreciate your patience as we iron out any remaining bugs. If you notice a feature that is not working properly or want to share any feedback, please send us a message! Thank you!
