Adoption Counselors / Customer Service Representatives
226-7461 ext. 100
The Humane Society/SPCA employs part-time and full-time
adoption counselors / customer service representatives
to help in the care of our animals. They are responsible
for preparing pets and their paperwork for adoption,
providing accurate information and friendly service to
the public, and screening potential pet adopters.
-------------------------------------
Our mission at the Humane Society/SPCA of Bexar County
is to be the community?s primary resource for promoting
the humane treatment of companion animals by providing
education and adoption services.
Humane Society SPCA of Bexar County Goals
Find homes and provide temporary shelter for abandoned and
unwanted animals.
Prevent cruelty to animals.
Promote the spaying and neutering of dogs and cats.
Educate the community on responsible animal care. Ultimately
reducing the number of stray and unwanted animals!
HISTORY
The HS/SPCA is a non-profit organization that has served Bexar
County and its surrounding areas since 1952. In the past 50 years,
the HS/SPCA has found homes for over 157,000 animals. We also help
make our community a safer place by providing shelter for hundreds
of lost pets and strays each year. Eighty percent of the animals
at the HS/SPCA are pets that people have given up. Reasons vary
as to why they surrender their pets; some owners move and do not
want to take their animals with them, other pets are given up
because owners get new furniture or carpet and don't want their
pets to walk on them. The remaining 20% of animals in our shelter
are either lost or abandoned pets or strays.
FUNDING
The HS/SPCA relies entirely on private donations, self-generated
income (adoption and receiving fees), foundations and corporations
for all funding. The HS/SPCA is not a branch of any national
organization, such as the Humane Society of the United States,
nor do we receive funds from any city, county, state or federal
source.
POPULATION SERVED
The HS/SPCA serves the Bexar county area covering 1,247 square
miles with a population of 1.5 million people and San Antonio.
