Tri County Humane Society: WAHL Grooming Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

Making our shelter animals beautiful before adoption.

As a nonprofit 501(c)3 animals shelter, we rely solely on private donations, whether monetary or in-kind. With the Wahl grant we were able to groom, bathe and beautify the animals before adoption. Having the animals groomed before putting them up for adoption made the amount of time they stayed with us less and made the animals feel so much better.

Lilly was saved from a puppy mill and was so matted we couldn’t see her eyes. After our veterinary technicians shaved her and used the oatmeal shampoo, she was feeling much much better.
