WINNIPEG HUMANE SOCIETY

Since 1894, the Winnipeg Humane Society (WHS) has been protecting animals from suffering and promoting their welfare and dignity. This makes the WHS the oldest animal shelter and welfare organization in Manitoba.

Each year, the WHS supports more than 10,000 animals in the shelter and community. It is through the generous support of donors that animals are given food, shelter, medical care, love, and most importantly, a second chance.

Along with finding animals forever families, the WHS offers community support programs and services that help KEEP animals where they belong – in their loving homes. Our pet food bank, free behaviour helpline, low-cost veterinary services, and emergency boarding programs aim to ensure the bond between people and their pets remains.

For 132 years, the WHS has also been a trusted community institution dedicated to improving the welfare of all animals through education, advocacy, and partnerships that work to address issues affecting those in our care and our community, strengthening the voice of all animals.
