A better world through kindness to animals.
Best Friends Animal Society works to end the killing of dogs and cats in America's shelters, running sanctuaries, adoption programs, and partnerships with shelters across the country.
Its flagship sanctuary in Kanab, Utah is one of the largest no-kill animal sanctuaries in the country, caring for animals with medical or behavioral needs until they find homes.
Best Friends partners with shelters, rescue groups, and local governments nationwide to reduce shelter killing through spay/neuter programs, foster networks, and adoption support.
The organization tracks save rates across the country, working toward a future where every adoptable pet in every shelter has a chance at a home.
Animals with special medical or behavioral needs—ones that might be overlooked elsewhere—often find long-term care and a path to adoption at the Best Friends sanctuary and its network of partner organizations.
Community programs, legislative advocacy, and public education round out the effort, aiming to change how communities as a whole treat and care for homeless pets.
