The program offers individual consultations with WHSs certified dog trainer.Due to personnel and program changes, the B&T program only served the public for 8 months this fiscal year. The program served 719 families and individuals, trained 173 dogs in classes, and 25 pets and their families in private consultations. In addition, WHS held 4 Jr. Trainer camps and a winter break camp serving 62 middle-school youth learning elementary dog training and responsible pet care, while enhancing adoptability of resident shelter animals.Additionally, WHS offers pre-adoption consultations about dogs with specific behavioral needs in order to advise and instruct potential adopters. A seminar, Dog Smart is offered bi-weekly to all adopters and the public. The Behavior Helpline, available to all community members, responded to 225 individual requests for assistance with companion animal behavior. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Volunteers: 1100 volunteers contributed 67,048 hours last year, equal to approximately 32 FTE (equivalent full-time workers) or approximately 45% of our total workforce. Volunteers provided pets with compassionate care and training, cleaned kennels and staffed events, walked dogs, assisted in adoptions and administration, provided grounds maintenance, facilities improvements and professional in-kind services, drove animals to veterinary specialist appointments and transfers, helped with spay/neuter clinic operations, staffed several retail organizations and conducted trainings for new volunteers, and led the organization through service on the Board of Directors.

WHS, in conjunction with other cat shelter and rescue groups, formed the Marion Polk Community Cat Program, with the goal of increasing access to free or highly subsidized spay and neuter surgeries for free-roaming community cats (feral/stray/at large un-owned). 507 cats were brought to the clinic for this service. This free package includes the sterilization surgery, flea, ear mite and deworming treatment, vaccines including Rabies, and ear-tipping (to identify sterile status). OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 7: Foster Program: We expanded our sheltering services with 983 pets entering into our foster program. Our foster coordinator recruited, trained and managed 223 foster families who opened their hearts and homes to our special abandoned or surrendered pets in need of extra time and attention to become suitable for adoption. Foster families provide the additional time, medical treatment or rehabilitative training necessary for these special pets with individualized barriers to adoption. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 8: Total people and animals served 65,417 people (includes visitors to WHS and the Thriftstore not counted elsewhere) and 8,255 animals. This fiscal year, our shelter and services reached 16% of the population and households of Marion and Polk counties.Note that the above expenses are for all program services listed.”
