Caring Hands Humane Society

Caring Hands Humane Society is a 501c3 registered organization. We are a small humane society dedicated to finding a home for every animal entrusted to us.
(224)

We have reached the goal of being a “no kill community” in 2016 and have continued on that path every year since. We are committed to keeping that status every year from here out. A “No Kill Community” is an animal shelter that does not kill healthy or treatable animals even when the shelter is full, reserving euthanasia for terminally ill animals or those considered dangerous to public safety. Du

ring 2016, Caring Hands reached the goal with 90.42% and improved during 2017 to 93.1%. In 2018, we further increased that percentage to 95.66%! Behind those statistics are thousands of individual stories with happy endings because of your help! So many times when our resources were stretched to the limit, you came forward and brought food for the animals so they did not go hungry. You donated blankets so they were not cold. You gave them toys so they could have a little joy during their stay here. You saved their lives by providing foster homes until a kennel opened up or until they found their forever home. You sponsored their transport fees so they could go to rescues. You’ve supported us in our endeavors every time we have asked for your help. The companion animals here cannot speak, so on their behalf, we say thank you! The truth is, a shelter cannot achieve “no kill” status on its own. It takes a community. To find out how to take the next steps towards saving each and every animal, visit our volunteer, fostering, memberships, or donations pages. Remember, lives are saved one at a time!

Our first Haunted Walk-through was a success! Thanks to all of our supporters who made this such a great day! At the end of the day, our donation table was full, we raised $362.50, passed out candy to over 80 trick or treaters, found homes for four cats, and had so much fun in the process! Some of our adoptable dogs didn't mind a little bit of dressing up as well! Our staff had a friendly competition going as well - a door decorating contest! Thank you for putting your votes in!

Carrot Cake received an A+ from her Adventure Tails buddy! She got to sit outside of Norm's and say hello to folks who were passing by. Our volunteer Karen reported that she was very wiggly and happy to see people, and really wanted to go inside to see what everyone was after. Who has ever had Carrot Cake to go with their coffee? She'd love to take walks with you to your favorite coffee spot, and go home to snuggle on these upcoming cold days!

The saddest puppy eyes award goes to Hank this week, who has been looking for a home since late September! Hank doesn't like the shelter life, and would much rather be in a home instead of a kennel. Staff reported when he has office time he just naps the day away because he finally gets a break from his noisy neighbors. Can you save this sweet boy? Apply to adopt here: https://caringhandshs.org/adopt-original/adoption-profile/

This is why foster homes are so important! Antenna came to us as a stray, and she has been very stressed trying to adjust to kennel life. She's spending a bit of time in one of our back offices to give her a break from the noise of others dogs so she can get some rest. We'd love to find her and our other dogs foster homes if they don't find permanent homes soon after arriving, but we don't have that many dog fosters! Thinking about helping? Fill out an application and we can help you through the process. https://caringhandshs.org/foster/foster-profile/

Donations can be shipped to 1400 SE 3rd St in Newton, KS 67114.

Cobblestone had a great time meeting folks this Saturday at the HMC Family Fun Day! Cobblestone is looking for a home - he enjoys car rides and being near his person. Maybe there is someone out there who needs a traveling companion? Meet him today by visiting us at 1400 SE 3rd St in Newton!

Playgroups have been going very well for the adoptable pups in our care! Spanky (brown) loves playing with Apple Crisp (grey & white), and H***h (spotted) has been making friends with all our new kids! He's pictured with Hocus.

Learning to be easy on the leash, a good team player with other pups, always right by your side, and trainable! What more could you ask for?

Boo! Gravy here, how can I help you today? Let me tell you about me and my friends here at CHHS. We are all looking for a place to crash for the rest of our lives, but some canines here have sponsored adoption fees and have spent far too long napping on a kennel floor! Sponsored dogs are H***h, Spanky, Cowpoke, Josephine, & Ricky Ricardo! I guess I could mention that we have one sponsored cat named Alfred, too. I'm also up for adoption - maybe someone out there would like to sponsor me or some of my other CHHS friends? Anyway, visit our website to learn more! www.caringhandshs.org

The Phoenix Originals is hosting a fundraiser for us! Thank you so much for supporting our mission! Visit them here in Newton at the listed address below, and be sure to do some painting while you are there!

Cowpoke says you don't get to tell him to fetch; he tells YOU to fetch. Never a dull moment with this smarty pants, who knows all the tricks and lives to tell you all about it! He definitely loves for the attention to be on him, but get some treats involved and he will learn whatever you want to teach him. He's looking for an active human to bond with and perhaps would be a good candidate to be a sport dog! Interested in meeting him? Give us a call at 316-283-0839 or fill out an application here:

Smokey has been in foster for nearly 3 months! He's also been in shelter environment for a few months prior to that, so he's been real patient waiting for his forever home. He loves to cuddle at night and has done well with crate training during the day. Smokey has been around farm animals while his foster is helping him learn boundaries and training on basic commands. He does need to be in a home without cats or other dogs. We'd love to find him a family, so please share!

#WeCanHelp Wednesday - Lend A Paw Fund Caring Hands Humane Society is dedicated to reducing pet homelessness in Newton. With the support of our community, we are able to offer the Lend a Paw Fund, which financially supports residents to prevent them from surrendering or rehoming their pets. Our program can offer funds to repair fences, build dog runs, pay rental pet deposits, assist with emergency medical costs, schedule behavior consultations, and much more. We believe that the ability to love and care for a pet goes beyond financial status and that everyone is deserving of a pet’s love. In need of assistance?

Our Story

Our Mission, through the promotion of education in basic humane animal care, is to relieve animal suffering and to prevent cruelty to animals.

At Caring Hands Humane Society, we believe all animals deserve to be treated with dignity and respect during all stages of life. We always strive to provide the best possible care to the animals entrusted to us and to educate others about the benefits of strengthening the bond between humans and companion animals. We are dedicated to finding a home for every animal entrusted to us. We have reached the goal of being a “no kill community” in 2016 and have continued on that path every year since. We are committed to keeping that status every year from here out.

A “No Kill Community” is an animal shelter that does not kill healthy or treatable animals even when the shelter is full, reserving euthanasia for terminally ill animals or those considered dangerous to public safety. During 2016, Caring Hands reached the goal with 90.42% and improved during 2017 to 93.1%. In 2018, we further increased that percentage to 95.66%! Behind those statistics are thousands of individual stories with happy endings because of your help!

So many times when our resources were stretched to the limit, you came forward and brought food for the animals so they did not go hungry. You donated blankets so they were not cold. You gave them toys so they could have a little joy during their stay here. You saved their lives by providing foster homes until a kennel opened up or until they found their forever home. You sponsored their transport fees so they could go to rescues. You’ve supported us in our endeavors every time we have asked for your help.
