Poteau Valley Humane Society (PVHS) is dedicated to relieving the pain and suffering of animals through educational efforts as well as direct intervention. Through a collaborative partnership with local rescues and veterinary service providers PVHS is dedicated to providing low cost sterilization to all companion animals in their community. The overall goal of the Spay/Neuter Program is to reduce the number of animals entering the shelter thereby ultimately decreasing the need to transport pets out of state for adoption.
