Help Us Double Capacity to Serve Pets
To meet the growing demand for affordable veterinary services in Southwest Florida, we are launching the Paws for Wellness: Building a Healthier Tomorrow campaign — a bold step toward ensuring more pets receive the care they need by building the new Gulf Coast Humane Society Veterinary Clinic.

Get ready for an A+ day of fun at our Back-to-School Fair on Saturday, August 29, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Families are invited to bring their kids (both two- and four-legged!) for a fun-filled afternoon celebrating the start of the school year.
Strike a pose with professional back-to-school themed photos, then enjoy free school supply giveaways, swag bags, food trucks, local vendors, a bounce house for the kids, free nail trims for the pups by Furry Land USA, and craft activities for children, adults, and even your pets!
Be sure to stop by and meet the South Trail Fire District firefighters, explore their fire truck, and be among the first to purchase our first-ever Firefighters Calendar and have it autographed by the firefighters featured inside.
The event will take place outside of our new Veterinary Clinic and is the perfect opportunity to enjoy a fun community event while supporting Gulf Coast Humane Society. Plus, don’t miss our special adoption promotion at the shelter, where you just might meet your newest best friend. Every dollar raised helps us provide care, shelter, and second chances for animals in need throughout our community.
