ABOUT US
Our Mission Statement
To Promote the Welfare of All Animals and Prevent Cruelty and Suffering.
What we do:
Lost and Found: The Guelph Humane Society (GHS) helps reunite over 500
pets with their owners each year
Adoptions: Over 640 animals are placed in new, loving
homes each year
Sheltering: GHS cares for over 2500 pets each year,
providing food, shelter, veterinary attention and loving care
Stray Cats: The Society receives no subsidy for housing
more than 1200 stray cats from Wellington County.
Spay/Neuter Program: All adoption animals are spayed or
neutered before going to a new home
Identification Tags: Over 5000 City of Guelph dog tags
are issued by GHS and authorized locations around Guelph. If you have lost a pet, check
with us right away. We have many animals coming in everyday, one of them could be yours!
Wildlife Care and Advice: In addition to providing public
education, the shelter provides care for close to 900 injured or orphaned wild animals
each year.
Cruelty Investigations: The GHS investigates situations
of suspected abuse. If you have witnessed or are aware of any cases of animal abuse,
please contact the shelter
Humane Education: 17,000 children per year receive Humane
Education visits in the classroom. Kids ages 8 through 13 can also participate in the
Junior Humane Club to learn about animals
How We Survive
We exist solely on your generosity. We receive no federal, provincial or municipal
government grants. Please consider helping us help the animals by making a donation or
