Welcome to the Targhee Animal Shelter, an organization that started as a grassroots network of foster families made up of caring individuals in our valley. We are community members who are dedicated to the safety and humane treatment of Teton Valley Idaho's homeless domestic animals. In 2009 the animal shelter opened its doors providing housing and medical facilities for stray and abandoned animals until permanent, loving homes can be found.
Our shelter survives solely on donations and support from the members of our community. We receive no money from the county or state government as of yet. We welcome donations of any dollar amount as well as professional services or items from our current "wish list".
Our mission is to promote humane treatment of all animals, provide shelter for homeless and abused animals, and to ensure our animals are placed in permanent loving homes.
Stop companion animal overpopulation
Provide low income spay/neuter clinic
Teach the public on pet overpopulation
In the time it takes you to read this paragraph a wonderful cat or dog will be euthanized in a shelter somewhere in the United States. Why? Because there are too many animals and not enough good homes. Please do the right thing and spay and neuter your pets.
The Targhee Animal Shelter, PAWS, and the Jackson Animal Shelter are working hard to control the number of unwanted pets in the valley. With the help of caring and compassionate people of this community, we will soon make this dream and these goals a reality. Thank you for taking the time to read this and showing your support!
Sincerely,
Michelle ONeal
President
