Pet Services
Not only do we help our furry friends, we also strive to help our community the best we can. Owning a pet is not always the cheapest, so we offer the help that we see is not always the most affordable but very necessary. See below for more of the services that we provide for our community.
Spay/Neuter Assistance
Aside from lowering the number of animals roaming our streets, spaying and neutering pets commonly leads to less aggressive behaviors, decreased disease transmission, increased longevity and easier pet training. If you live in Finney County, we may be able to help with the expense. We are currently not offering any low cost spay/neuter clinics but we are hoping to bring them back later this year! For now, we are able to help Finney Co residents with vouchers for a discount on their pet's surgery.
Low-Cost Vaccine Clinics
Vaccines provide your pet dog with protection against many dangerous diseases. Unvaccinated dogs that roam around town and mix with other animals, or that spend time in boarding facilities, are extremely vulnerable and at risk for a number of deadly illnesses.
Fortunately, the Finney County Humane Society is a place where you can find Low-Cost Pet Vaccinations if you're on a budget.
Petlink Microchips
PetLink is a leader in pet identification and reunification aiming to create a lifelong link between people and pets. PetLink identification products alert everyone at a glance that your pet has a microchip and has online resources to help get your pet safely back to you. This is NOT a tracking or GPS device, but another form of ID. We offer these down here at the Shelter on a walk in basis.
Cremation Services
At FCHS, we understand the emotion and heartache losing a fur-member can cause. We perform private cremations for owners that would like to have their pet back home with them forever. All private cremations are done with the up-most care and respect for the animals and come with a velvet sack to keep your pet's remains. Urns may be purchased at an additonal cost. If you would like more information, please give us a call or send an email with your information.
