PET NETWORK HUMANE SOCIETY

Pet Network's mission is to rescue adoptable animals from euthanasia, connect abandoned animals with loving homes, instill respect for animals through education and promote quality of life through animal companionship.

Pet Network will continue to strive to educate the general population on the importance of rescuing animals from shelters rather than going to breeders. Mixed breeds are generally healthier and live longer while still offering all the same love and affection to their owners as pure breeds. Additionally, Pet Network will continue to educate the surrounding communities on the importance of pet sterilization in an effort to impact the millions of unnecessary euthanasia’s nationwide each year.

Pet Network benefits both from a dedicated staff as well as a robust volunteer workforce committed to animal rescue. In addition, Pet Network has partnered with Dr. Kim Barnes of Barnes Veterinary Service to offer low cost spay and neutering for our local community. Executive Director Jason Stipp has a background in teaching and spearheads our education program.

10,000 animals have been rescued and those animals have impacted the families who’ve adopted them and we have affected change in the lives of hundreds of children through humane education. However, until the 3.7 animals being euthanized each year becomes zero, our work will not be complete. Due to our isolation and staff constraints, we have not been able to expand our education program to other counties, and we hope to do so in the near future.
