The Animal Protection Society – Friday Harbor (APS-FH), established in 1982, is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to animal welfare. APS-FH operates solely through private funding without any county, state, or federal support, except for a small portion of county dog license fees.
Our primary purpose is to provide essential programs and services that protect and improve the lives of companion pets. Through adoption matchmaking, low-cost spay/neuter and wellness clinics, community pet support services, other shelter, rescue, and nonprofit partnerships; and outreach and education programs we strive to create a society where empathy and love for animals are foundational, and every pet has a happy "home."
