On March 18th, after reviewing the true mission of our organization, the board of directors of the Humane Association of Wilson County voted unanimously to move in the direction of becoming a limited admission shelter. We have decided that we will not continue to euthanize healthy, adoptable dogs and cats to make space for more. We will continue to help as many pets as possible but will not become hoarders, overcrowded or keep an animal in a cage for years. The changes will allow us to adopt healthier animals, do a greater number of adoptions, improve staff morale, attract and maintain more volunteers and develop more proactive community programs. We will not use the term NO-KILL because we feel that it is misleading and offensive. We will still have to deal with euthanasia but on a much more limited basis. Because of a lack of animal control in our county in the past we felt it necessary to take on most of the animal related issues including the euthanasia of thousands of animals each year. Now that we have animal control programs in Mt. Juliet, Lebanon and Wilson County we hope to work together to achieve a common goal of eliminating the need to euthanize healthy pets to control the pet population. On April 1, we made our future plans known to the Wilson County Urban Types Facilities Board. The county is aware that they will have to make some changes to their current animal control program including accepting strays. An animal control advisory committee is being formed that will include a representative of our organization. We hope this committee will be the first step in working together as a community regarding pet related issues.
