Wilbarger Humane Society
Our Mission
The Wilbarger Humane Society is dedicated to providing a safe haven for homeless pets while advocating for responsible ownership and the humane treatment of all animals. We work tirelessly to protect animals from abuse and neglect while fostering a community where every pet is valued.
Our History and Community
Established as a tax-exempt 501(c)3 non-profit in 1977, our organization has served Wilbarger County and the surrounding areas for decades. We were founded to address the critical need for animal protection and to serve as a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.
How We Care for Our Animals
We operate a facility in Vernon, Texas, where our primary commitment is the health and well-being of the animals in our care. Every pet receives necessary tests, vaccinations, and required spay or neuter surgeries, ensuring they are healthy and ready for a responsible transition into a permanent home.
Your Partner in Adoption
Adopting a pet is a joyful partnership, and our team is here to help you find the perfect companion for your family. We focus on providing high-quality medical preparation for every animal, so you can adopt with confidence knowing your new friend has received professional care. Choosing to adopt from us means you are helping us continue our vital work to end pet overpopulation and suffering.
