Programs

My Last Litter

The My Last Litter program is designed to help curb the unwanted offspring of owned pets in our community. This program offers free spay/vaccinations/microchipping for the mother. We then in turn take in the full litter of healthy, socialized kittens or puppies (min of 3 to qualify) at 8 -10 weeks of age and 2.2 pounds. The babies are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped prior to adoption. Pregnant pets also qualify for the program, please contact YHS as soon as possible. Feral animals do not qualify for the program. If you live in Yakima County and are interested in this program or have any questions, please call the Adoption Center at 509.457.6854 or email [email protected]. If you are located in Kittitas County please call the Adoption Center at 509.925.7387 or email [email protected].

Fresh Start Fix

The Fresh Start Fix program is intended to stop the cycle of unaltered pets roaming and reproducing in the Yakima valley.  When pets are redeemed from the Yakima Humane Society their owner is provided with the opportunity to have that pet altered at the YHS Spay and Neuter Clinic free of charge.  Pets that are spayed/neutered are proven to leave their property less and have fewer negative behavior interactions. By providing this service, YHS endeavors to fix these concerns while striving to end the overpopulation of unwanted pets.  If you would like to donate towards this worthy program please call 509.457.6854 or click here.

Pawsitive Protection

Vaccinations are important for puppies because it protects them from highly contagious and potentially fatal diseases. The parvo vaccine is part of the core vaccine protocol for all puppies. 

Why the parvo vaccine is important?

  • Prevents the spread of disease: The parvo vaccine helps prevent the spread of canine parvovirus to other dogs.
  • Helps puppies build immunity: The vaccine helps puppies build up a resistance to the virus. 
  • Reduces the impact of sickness: Even if the vaccine isn't 100% effective, it can significantly reduce the impact of the disease. 

The Pawsitive Protection program offered by the Yakima Humane Society is designed to provide adopters with the opportunity to protect their newly acquired family member at no additional charge.  Puppies adopted from YHS are current on vaccinations but with the Pawsitive Protection program the needed parvo boosters are also made available.  If you are interested in puppies that are currently available for adoption please email [email protected].

Pet Pantry

The Yakima Humane Society Pet Pantry is a vital resource for residents struggling to provide for their beloved animal companions. Understanding that economic hardship can make pet ownership difficult, the Pet Pantry offers dog and cat food to community members in need. Generous donations from the public form the backbone of the pantry's supplies, ensuring that those facing tough times don't have to choose between feeding themselves and their furry friends. By providing this essential support, the Pet Pantry helps keep pets in their homes. You can help by donating dog and cat food to our adoption center; all types/brands of food are accepted, including opened items.
