Our Mission
Our mission is to prevent cruelty and neglect to animals; to educate children and all members of the community about animal welfare issues; and to provide for the health and well-being of animals with an emphasis on spay/neuter to prevent pet over-population.
We achieve our mission statement through the following programs and services to the community:
- Low cost spay/neuter, vaccine and wellness veterinary clinic, humane education and cruelty investigation.
- The HSSBV does not receive any funding from government/city/county agencies or any national animal organizations, such as the Humane Society of the United States. All of our funding is received through private donations, fundraising efforts and grants. In order to support these efforts on a local level, donations can be made directly to the HSSBV.
- The HSSBV is not an animal control agency or a shelter. We do not adopt out animals, pick up deceased animals or strays, license pets or provide any animal control services. If you are looking for animal control services in your area, please click here to see which organization services the city you live in (hyperlink animal control blog). Contact your agency of service for information on strays, lost pets, animal complaints, licensing information, animal pick up, etc.
IMPORTANT CLINIC UPDATES:
OUR SATURDAY SHOT CLINICS WILL BE CLOSED APRIL & MAY 2022
WE LOOK FORWARD TO OPENING THE PROGRAM AGAIN IN JUNE.
· CLINIC SERVICE: Both the HSSBV clinic waiting area lobby, as well as the
appointment center, are open to the public!
·
Please be advised, that some of our check in procedures, for
example the surgery check in line, will still take place partially outside.
This time of restructure has introduced ways to streamline some of our
processes both for our clients and our staff.
We appreciate the patience and
kindness our clients have shown as we continually adapted to the COVID
restrictions over the two years. Thank you for sticking with us and choosing us
to treat your beloved four legged family members.
Unfortunately, not every client we encounter
shows this same patience and kindness. As a reminder, the HSSBV will not
tolerate aggressive behavior to our staff, volunteers, or other clients under
any circumstances. We have a zero tolerance policy. Aggressive clients will be
asked to leave and their pets will not be treated. We reserve the right to
refuse service to anyone. Please treat our staff, and especially our dedicated
volunteers, kindly.
REVISED 4/6/22: Due to our staffing shortage, we find it necessary to implement the following change to our euthanasia service. *It is recommended and encouraged to schedule an appointment. Appointments can be made in advance and for same day service. *Euthanasia will be performed between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm. If you have a medical emergency, please contact us immediately.
