It all started because of an injured mule which could not 'legally' be destroyed because it was unclaimed by the owner. Seven concerned West End residents joined together to care for the mule, as it seems that no one else cared.
Thus, was started the Umatilla County Humane Society. Its organization and non-profit status were supervised by Gene Burgess, then Executive Secretary of the Oregon Humane Society in Portland. Incorporation papers were issued, and the organization registered as a federal and state 501(c)(3) humane non-profit corporation in 1975.
Over the years, through different administrations and several name changes including Stokes Landing Humane Society and, most recently, Pioneer Humane Society, the organization has never waivered from its main goal to prevent cruelty to animals. Administrative reorganization in 2002 has resulted in an expanded mission which now includes: education to promote responsible pet ownership, reduction of unwanted animals through on-going spay/neuter programs, adoption services for lost and abandoned animals, plus plans to construct a new shelter to serve the City of Pendleton as well as the eastern portion of Umatilla County.

Unfortunatley, Pit Rescue of the Great Plains DOES NOT take owner surrenders! Our waiting list is death row. Pit Rescue is a small organization that needs more foster homes to accommodate all the pits that need a second chance. Expections will ONLY be made in extreme circumstances, and the dog must be spayed

We mainly work with Pit Bulls/mixes, and Rottweilers. Occasionally we will take in other breeds that are in need of rescue. These dogs usually come from Southern Shelters that still gas and heartstick animals. If you are interested in adopting another breed of dog, please let us know. There are plenty of dogs waiting for that special home.

The Humane Society in Eastern North Carolina was established over 20 years ago to protect animals from cruelty and abuse. It was designed not only to serve as a safe haven for homeless and neglected pets but also to act as a resource and service to the community of Pitt County. By educating the public about issues pertaining to animals, we feel that we can work towards the elimination of over breeding of dogs and cats and teach owners how to be responsible pet owners. At the same time, we hope to facilitate adoption of pets to good homes so that we can allow more of the unwanted pets to enter our gates. In welfare cases, we provide financial support to help for legal injections, medications, accidents and, when monies permit, spaying and neutering of pets.
