For many of the cats and dogs who come to the West Columbia Gorge Humane Society, some are just hours away from being euthanized.“It’s our mission to end unnecessary euthanization of animals and to place them in forever homes,” interim president Rochelle Ramos said. “We also want to be a resource to people who have to surrender animals or need help caring for them.”

The WCGHS, located in Washougal, is a nonprofit group funded mainly through donations. The city of Washougal also contracts with the dog shelter to provide space for dogs brought in by animal control.
