WWAS Pets

WWAS Pets This is an independent community page that aids WWAS residents to find adopters through social media. These funds provide for the operation of the shelter only.

WWAS is a rural shelter located about 40 miles east of Athens. We specialize in both cat and dog adoptions and occasionally small animal adoptions. We only accept owner surrenders and/or strays from Wilkes County residents. The shelter is funded by the City of Washington and Wilkes County. The Washington Wilkes Humane Association (WWHSA) was created to help with expenses ( medical surgeries, spay

, neuter, vaccinations, etc.) not covered by the City/County funding. The WWHSA is a 501(c)3 and all donations are tax deducible.

FIND A HOME FRIDAY!!!
This big guy wanted to make sure Santa heard his wish for Christmas, but unfortunately , Santa couldn't make it happen. Jughead is a 60 lb. Chocolate Lab/Pit mix who is just an energetic goofball. He is 6-7 years old, current with his vaccinations and heartworm negative. As with all of our animals, we will neuter and chip him. He is very friendly, fun loving, loves to run and play, good with other dogs and good with kids. If you would like to meet Jughead, come by the shelter and visit with him.
As always, please SHARE,SHARE,SHARE so that Jughead gets as many views as possible to help him find a forever home.

TONGUE OUT TUESDAY!!!
Levi thought he might be too old ( 7-8 years) to sit in Santa's lap, so he and Santa chatted while Santa gave him some rubs. Like the other doggies, he wants a forever home. He is such a friendly boy, it's a mystery as to why he hasn't already been adopted. He is a Shepherd/Husky , current with vaccinations, heartworm negative, neutered, we will chip him, 90+ lbs., very friendly and affectionate, good with other dogs and good on a leash.
