Overview

Mission

The mission of the amarillo panhandle humane society (aphs) is to promote education regarding the humane treatment of animals to citizens of the Texas panhandle including pet over-population, proper pet care, ownership responsibility and to provide solutions to help in identified areas of need and be a voice for those who cannot help themselves.

What it reported doing in 2023

The aphs promotes humane education and proper pet care and responsibility to the citizens of the Texas panhandle. Our goal is to eliminate the needless euthanasia of adoptable animals through educating the public on spaying and neutering. During the 2019 calendar year, the aphs transitioned its focus from adoptions to a foster based rescue. Our focus is networking and transporting animals at risk of euthanasia to safety. Through our transport program aphs is able to offer positive outcomes to many animals left in our local municipal shelter. We begin networking animals as soon as we meet them, offer in-house vetting required for them to travel across state lines and have two transport vans. Transporting animals to areas who dont suffer from such severe overpopulation offers our community an opportunity to focus more efforts on fewer numbers locally. This program has saved thousands of animals who would have otherwise been euthanized in the city shelter. The long term goal is that this life-saving program is no longer needed, until then aphs will be here doing what we can for amarillos homeless pets. Aphs ran 37 transports in 2023.
