Wayne County Humane Society

The mission of the WCHS, Inc. is to provide compassion to the animals entrusted to our care, to measurably reduce companion animal overpopulation and to take a leadership role in educating and promoting humane values.

We strive to maintain a place of safety for healthy adoptable animals; a temporary home for the lost or homeless; a haven for the mistreated, neglected or abused animals of the Wayne County area.

We are dedicated to the prevention of cruelty and abuse to animals; employing Humane Agents that respond to complaints of animal cruelty or neglect, animal injuries and illness in the Wayne County area.

Euthanasia will not be our population control, but rather an act of kindness to end animals’ suffering or to ensure public safety and welfare.

It is our pledge to nourish the relationship between companion animals and humans through education, media exposure and readily available information and assistance.
