About AHS

One of the nation's leading animal welfare organizations, Animal Humane Society helps more than 23,000 animals every year. We’re transforming the way shelters care for animals and engage their communities, advancing animal welfare and creating a more humane world for animals everywhere.

Open Admissions Philosophy

Animal Humane Society accepts every animal that comes to us, and there is no time limit placed on the animals in our adoption centers. As long as an animal remains in good health and temperament, it is available until it is adopted. However, we also have a commitment to placing only healthy, treatable, and safe animals in the community. When the difficult decision is made to end an animal’s life for untreatable aggression or unmanageable illness, we provide them with a dignified end to life with humane euthanasia by compassion injection. 

Why Work Here

  • Make a difference in the lives of animals and people
  • Join a team of coworkers who love animals as much as you do
  • Work-life balance
  • Health, dental, vision, and coverage
  • 401K with up to 4% match
  • Nine paid holidays

Company

The Animal Humane Society is dedicated to the positive, transformative experience that animals provide to all people. AHS is an independent non-profit 501C-3 organization serving Minnesota since 1891; today it has facilities in Golden Valley and Coon Rapids and in 2004 served nearly 24,000 homeless domestic and wild animals. It is the largest humane society in the five-state area and one of the top ten in the country. AHS exists to protect, preserve and extend the animal-human bond. In addition to adoption, the Animal Humane Society provides education programs for schools, camp programs, dog training, animal boarding, humane investigations, community education, animal assisted therapy and pet behavior information. AHS is also one of the few humane groups that take in wildlife. Each spring, the AHS holds the largest Walk for Animals in the world: in 2005, more than 8,000 people and 5,000 pets gathered here to celebrate the reciprocal love between humans and animals. We are supported solely by individual donors, adoption fees, merchandise sales and special events.
