Union County Animal Protection Society, Inc.
Our Mission
The Union County Animal Protection Society (UCAPS) is dedicated to providing humane care, shelter, and medical attention to the homeless, abused, and neglected animals of Union County. We work tirelessly to secure loving forever homes for our residents and promote a community where animals are treated with kindness and respect.
A Legacy of Care
Since our incorporation as a non-profit organization in 1985, UCAPS has been a cornerstone of animal welfare in Arkansas. Our commitment to our community involves not only providing refuge but also advancing essential programs like spay/neuter services and public education to create a brighter, more compassionate future for pets and people alike.
How We Help
We operate a shelter facility for those in need and a dedicated Adoption Center in El Dorado, designed to provide a home-style setting for families to meet their future companions. Beyond our walls, we rely on a compassionate network of foster families who provide extra love and socialization to our animals, as well as an active transport program that helps find homes for our pets across the country.
Your Role in Their Journey
Adopting is a wonderful, life-changing commitment that brings a devoted companion into your world for years to come. We believe in thoughtful matching, ensuring that each animal finds a home perfectly suited to their needs and personality. When you adopt from UCAPS, you are not just gaining a friend—you are making space for us to save another animal in need.
