Our History

West Valley Humane Society’s journey began in 2011 when it was established after the privatization of the Canyon County Animal Shelter. This transformation led to the birth of a charitable nonprofit entity focused on animal welfare. Since then, we’ve been tirelessly serving thousands of animals in Canyon County and surrounding areas each year.

A Holistic Approach

Our approach to animal welfare encompasses a wide range of services, including safe and secure housing, medical care, food, and behavioral support. We offer low-cost preventative care for our community through vaccine clinics, microchip clinics, spay/neuter services, and targeted humane education.

Inclusivity and Collaboration

West Valley Humane Society is an open admission shelter for canines in Canyon County and limited admission for other species. We also collaborate with other counties and regions on a limited intake basis, transferring animals from overcrowded areas to offer them a better future.
