Animal Services
Washington County Animal Services, located at the Bonnie L. Hays Small Animal Shelter, cares for lost animals, finds homes for abandoned pets, licenses dogs, enforces animal cruelty laws and protects our citizens from dangerous animals. Last year, we provided care for about 6,000 animals in our shelter, responded to more than 8500 citizen calls, and did community outreach at schools, fairs, and events.
Washington County is the second-largest county in Oregon with a population of more than 527,000 people. We provide services for an estimated 100,000 dogs and 120,000 cats and their owners in an area that encompasses 727 square miles.
