Our Mission

Woods Humane Society is a nonprofit organization which receives no tax funds, but is supported by donations, grants, bequests, fundraising events and fees for services. We have locations in San Luis Obispo and Atascadero. Woods is independent of San Luis Obispo County Animal Services, but works in close cooperation with them and other animal groups for the welfare of all animals. Woods cares for over 1500 cats and dogs eag year until they can be united with loving families. We bring in animals from other shelters where they are less likely to be adopted and from individuals who are no longer able to care for their pets. We are extremely proud of the fact that last year 99% of the animals that came into our shelter found new homes.
