Twelfth Day of Christmas

On the Twelfth Day of Christmas, my true love said to me
There’s space in our hearts
There’s room in our home
We could really use a playmate
I think we’re really ready
For a friend to last a lifetime
Our bed could use a snuggler
Why vacuum crumbs a dog could eat?
Have you seen the Christmas Dogs???
Let’s go down right now
We’ll find our new Best Friend
Waiting just for us
And together make the cutest family.

Looking for that “Unique Gift” this year?

No matter if you are looking for a holiday or New Year's gift, you can make a positive impact in the lives of Washington, DC’s homeless animals, AND give a meaningful gift that will stand out from the pack by sponsoring dogs or cats in our shelters as they await permanent homes. 

For just $150, you can have the satisfaction of knowing that your generosity helped the Washington Humane Society, and the person receiving the gift will know that their gift provided the bedding, treats, special foods, toys, gentle leader leashes, dog “Adopt Me” vests, etc. that make an animal’s stay at the shelter as comfortable as possible. 

Both your name, and the name of person receiving the gift, will be prominently displayed on the animal’s cage for all visitors to see.  To sponsor a dog or a cat as a gift, please send your one-time gift of $150 and specify if you prefer to sponsor a dog or a cat. You can also make your gift online by visiting:
