BLUE WATER AREA HUMANE SOCIETY INTRODUCES ITSELF In 1887, a group of concerned individuals joined forces in an effort to ensure humane treatment of animals in St. Clair County. Today, your Blue Water Area Humane Society, a full service organization, is still a donation supported partnership of people working together to ensure responsible care for and respectful treatment of companion animals in St. Clair County and the surrounding area. Blue Water Area Humane Society a ‘No Time Limit’ shelter where no animal is refused admittance and all animals in adoption stay with us until adopted. St. Clair County policy however, does require that all ‘stray’ dogs must go to Animal Control. However, we do accept stray cats. While in our care, all animals are vaccinated and wormed. Dogs are tested for heartworm. Cats are tested for FELV & FIV. Cats and dogs are treated for fleas/ear mites if necessary. All known medical and dental problems are cared for and all animals 4 lbs. and up (except female dogs who, on the advice of our veterinarian, must wait until they are 4 months old) are neutered before leaving Blue Water Area Humane Society. We are active in our community; we are the only organization in St. Clair County to provide an annual Low-Cost Vaccination Clinic for limited income families and the only organization in St. Clair County to help address the pet over-population through our Spay & Neuter Voucher Program for limited income families. We are a ‘companion animal welfare’ organization, not an ‘animal rights’ group. We spend no money ‘lobbying’ for anything. Nor do we take a stand either for or against hunting and fishing, etc. We are a 501(c)(3) organization and are funded by donations only. We do not receive any monies from governmental agencies or other humane societies. The mission of your Blue Water Area Humane Society is to care for companion animals whose families can no longer care for them. To adopt them into permanent, loving homes and to end, through spaying and neutering, the horrific pet over-population problem (particularly among cats) which exists in St. Clair County. 6266 Lapeer Rd., Clyde, MI 48059 (2 miles west of Wadhams Rd)
