Because pets need people and people need pets, Suncoast Humane Society provides sheltering to the most vulnerable animals, affordable prevention services to the community and ongoing support for pets and the people who love them.
Our Mission is then bonded to our Vision of helping pets and people live happier, healthier lives filled with love, together.
We have developed an innovative, community-focused approach to care for pets and the people who love them:
Sheltering – We rescue, house, care for, and adopt pets from our Englewood shelter. To add to our capacity, we’ve developed a network of foster families throughout the Suncoast region. And to foster better human-animal bonds, we developed the innovative Positive Alternatives to Shelter Surrender (PASS) program, leveraging the greater community to keep families together.
Prevention Clinics – To reduce pet overpopulation and illness we also invest in prevention efforts including low-cost spay/neuter clinics, vaccinations, and other preventative care.
Community Outreach – We educate the community to help them build stronger bonds with their pets through positive behavior training programs and pet therapy. And we have services to help them keep their pets, despite temporary challenges, with our community pet food bank.
