There is an saying that you can tell a lot about a community by how they treat their animals.   I wanted to take this opportunity to highlight a wonderful organization in Knoxville. The Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley (HSTV) is committed to ending pet overpopulation, protecting abused pets, and furthering educational outreach efforts.

The HSTV was chartered in 1885 and remained the only shelter in Knox County for 50 years. On January 1, 2002 the HSTV became a “no kill” shelter. The “no kill” designation is important because it means that no animal will be euthanized because there is no space.

The HSTV as part of its community outreach program often organizes public, low cost vaccinations, heartworm testing, and spay/neuter programs. The HSTV is always in need of volunteers and donations. If you or your organization would like to volunteer your services or donate, please click HERE to learn how. If you would like to visit the shelter or contact a shelter official, click HERE for locations and hours. This is a wonderful organization that deserves the support of the local community as it works to protect and enrich the lives of our animal companions.
