Let's heal our sacred circle

Historic trauma has hindered and even broken the relationship many Native families have with our companion animals. We believe we can co-create a healthier and safer future for our communities.

OUR STORIES

Little Butter and Tamara

This is Little Butter and his mom Tamara, as Butter gets loaded into our Four Leg Drive Pet Transport. At NAHS, Tribal families load their own dogs into our backseat.

Our Pet Transport Manager Jeanne O’Brien took Little Butter to see the veterinarian and brought her home spayed later that day.

Through our partnership with PetSmart Charities, we’ve provided life-saving care for dogs and cats on reservations and developed strategies for transformative, scalable change across Indian Country. Together, we’re changing lives.

Work Printing and Graphics is our favorite printer! They are local (for us anyway–in Baltimore!), do amazing work and have a real cool dog, Roxy, who is BFF to our dog, Luke! They offer the peace of mind that comes from knowing your project is in good hands.

Our dream

We are working to build the first Native American Humane Society facility on a Tribal Nation by 2035. It will be the first center of veterinary care, pet shelters, and therapeutic pools in a Tribal community.
