BC Humane Society is involved with animal welfare at many levels across the province. From heroic acts of rescue to conducting spay and neuter clinics in remote communities to ongoing fundraising events we step up for animals in every possible way. ? BC Humane Society accepts dogs cats and small animals from Vancouver Island and across BC who have been abandoned mistreated or can longer be cared for by their owners. In some instances we partner with other rescue organizations to help save animals in dire need. For example since our inception we have actively worked with Whistler Sled Dog Company to save and re-home retired sled dogs. The BC Humane Society is a grassroots organization with the single-minded goal to improve the lives of domestic animals in our province. With that in mind we have partnered with other like-minded organizations in British Columbia who agree that there is no one approach to animal welfare. Through this collaborative approach we hope to explore the connection of ideas and build a strong network to work towards influencing government policies and social norms in regards to domestic animals.
