Palm Valley Animal Society

Palm Valley Animal Society Palm Valley Animal Society (PVAS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, lifesaving leader in the Rio Grande Valley In May 2016, The Laurie P.

Palm Valley Animal Society (PVAS) was founded in 1974 as the Upper Valley Humane Society. The facility, then operated by and located in McAllen, was turned over to the Humane Society by the City of McAllen to carry out the entire operation and functions of the municipal animal facility. In 1981, the Upper Valley Humane Society received a donation of 2.5 acres of land located at 2501 W Trenton Rd i

n Edinburg. This encouraged the subsequent purchase of the adjacent 2.5 acres for 5 acres. Contributions from the surrounding cities and donations from local citizens ($50,000 from Bob Sobel and $100,000 from L.L. Rowan) secured construction on this land, and the facility opened on October 31st, 1983, with 56 dog runs and 60 cat kennels. After much deliberation and consideration, our Board of Directors determined that it would be in the organization's best interest to make significant changes. As a result of these changes, we changed our name from the Upper Valley Humane Society to Palm Valley Animal Center in 2007. Since our inception, we have grown from receiving several hundred animals a year, with 22 dog runs and 9 cat kennels, to receiving more than 40,000 animals a year, with 350 dog runs and 185 cat kennels. Our staff has grown from a few volunteer helpers to over 100 trained professionals. Serving the community for 50 years, our commitment to animals has never wavered, and we look forward to our next 50 years of lifesaving. In 2015, after extensive research and planning, the PVAS Board of Directors broke ground for a new adoption and education facility with the support of community leaders. Andrews Center opened its doors and has been breaking adoption records for Palm Valley Animal Society ever since.

🚨Urgent Fosters or Adopters Needed By 09/15🚨
A kennel can keep a dog alive, but it cannot give them a life, and it was not meant to be forever.
After more than 2 years, these dogs are showing the toll of long-term confinement in a shelter environment. Despite everyone's efforts, they are struggling mentally and physically, and we must put their quality of life first.
We are asking our community to help in adopting, signing up for long-term foster, or simply helping us by sharing this post to increase their chances at a life outside the shelter.
They deserve more than survival; they deserve a loving family.🏡

This sweet & friendly gal is experiencing a decline in her quality of life in the time she has been in the shelter environment. She pairs well and plays with other dogs, has been cooperative with our medical team for checkups but would ultimately benefit from a home outside of the shelter. Can you open your home to Rosita?

After just a short time in the shelter, Nikki has started to show signs of anxiety and stress. She does well in playgroups and allows interactions from other dogs, but ultimately she deserves a home outside the shelter. Can you open your home to Nikki?
