A Message from the Chief Executive Officer:<br />
Dear Animal Lovers,<br />
Th<strong>an</strong>k you <strong>for</strong> your wonderful <strong>an</strong>d life-saving support! Through the generosity <strong>an</strong>d<br />
compassion of this community, the <strong>Seattle</strong> Hum<strong>an</strong>e <strong>Society</strong> has been able to save<br />
more <strong>an</strong>imals’ live, provide the healing presence of <strong>an</strong>imals to shut-ins <strong>an</strong>d to reach<br />
new st<strong>an</strong>dards of program excellence.<br />
Because of you, the Behavior Program is successfully tr<strong>an</strong>s<strong>for</strong>ming the behavior of<br />
dogs <strong>for</strong>merly considered unsuitable <strong>for</strong> adoption <strong>an</strong>d those dogs are living happy<br />
lives in homes of their own.<br />
Through your generosity, we have upgraded several of our <strong>an</strong>imal housing areas<br />
to help our shelter guests thrive in our care on the way to homes of their own.<br />
We installed special doors in the south dog dorm to reduce noise <strong>an</strong>d barrier<br />
frustration <strong>for</strong> our dogs. We built condos to house our adoption center cats <strong>an</strong>d<br />
created other special areas where waiting cats c<strong>an</strong> enjoy special attention from<br />
volunteers <strong>an</strong>d roam around in a room <strong>for</strong> exercise.<br />
Because of you, the <strong>Seattle</strong> Hum<strong>an</strong>e <strong>Society</strong> was able to take a bold step to help<br />
end dog fighting in King County by <strong>an</strong>nouncing a $5,000 REWARD <strong>for</strong> in<strong>for</strong>mation<br />
leading to the arrest <strong>an</strong>d conviction of <strong>an</strong>yone who org<strong>an</strong>izes dog fights,<br />
participates in dog fights, promotes dog fighting, or officiates at dog fights in King<br />
County, Washington.<br />
Assisted by members of the Hum<strong>an</strong>e Teen Club, we launched Summer Adventure<br />
Camps <strong>for</strong> Kids.<br />
All sessions were filled with students who had fun while they learned about<br />
<strong>an</strong>imals.<br />
The Pet Visiting Program has grown to 15 dogs <strong>an</strong>d two cats who, along with their<br />
owners, provide the healing presence of <strong>an</strong>imals to people in hospitals <strong>an</strong>d senior<br />
centers who c<strong>an</strong> no longer have pets of their own.<br />
Through your generosity, the MaxMobile, our new 33 foot mobile adoption,<br />
portable classroom <strong>an</strong>d emergency vehicle, has arrived!<br />
“Max” will soon be ready to roll around the county<br />
leading the way to help <strong>an</strong>imals.<br />
Th<strong>an</strong>k you <strong>for</strong> making this such <strong>an</strong><br />
amazing year. Your generosity <strong>an</strong>d your<br />
encouragement have made <strong>an</strong> incredible<br />
difference.<br />
